The rock backhoe (capacity: 4 cubic meters) of Caterpillar's 65 tonne CAT 565 BL excavator is exposed to extreme wear - which is why Dillinger Hütte GTS DIILLIDUR is the standard material for its cutters, side plates, and rear and side wear plates.

Alongside high mechanical strength and excellent resistance to wear, the definitive factor in the selection of this steel was its unusually good weldability for a steel of this type. As our illustration shows, DILLIDUR can be welded with no special technical complexity.
