572-0865 | Heavy Penetration Bucket Tooth for Caterpillar 6015B Hydraulic Shovel
Product Overview
The 572-0865 is a premium heavy penetration bucket tooth engineered as a direct replacement for the Caterpillar 6015B hydraulic mining shovel. Designed specifically for high-production loading of abrasive and compacted materials, this tooth delivers aggressive breakout force, superior wear resistance, and an extended operational lifespan. Its advanced geometry and robust construction are tailored to maximize productivity and minimize cost-per-ton in the most demanding mining and quarrying applications.
Key Features & Technical Advantages
Optimized Heavy Penetration Geometry: The aggressive "Heavy Penetration" profile is engineered to concentrate digging force at the point of entry, enabling efficient fragmentation and loading of hard, banked materials. This design minimizes resistance, reduces cycle times, and enhances bucket fill factor for superior overall efficiency.
Precision OEM Compatibility: Manufactured to meet or exceed original Caterpillar specifications, this tooth guarantees a perfect fit and reliable performance on the 6015B hydraulic shovel. It ensures optimal force distribution to protect the adapter and front-end assembly from stress-induced damage and premature wear.
High-Strength Alloy Steel Construction: Forged from premium, heat-treated alloy steel, the 572-0865 achieves an exceptional balance of high surface hardness (for abrasion resistance) and a tough, ductile core (for impact absorption). This combination provides outstanding defense against wear, spalling, and breakage under extreme loads.
Enhanced Durability in Severe Conditions: The strategic material selection and specialized hardening processes significantly extend service life when handling highly abrasive materials like iron ore, taconite, and hard rock, directly reducing replacement frequency and machine downtime.
Robust Design for Continuous Operation: With a weight of 66.04 kg, this tooth is built to withstand the immense breakout forces and shock loads of the 6015B shovel, ensuring structural integrity and reliable performance in 24/7 mining operations.
Technical Specifications
Application & Benefits
