Material Composition and Heat Treatment for Optimal Durability
The CAT 120G Grader Cutting Edge 5D-9553 is manufactured from quenched and tempered steel, delivering an optimal balance of surface hardness and core toughness. This heat treatment process enhances wear resistance while maintaining ductility to absorb shock loads encountered during road maintenance and site leveling. The curved continuous edge design promotes smooth material flow and efficient distribution, reducing operator effort during fine grading operations. With a standard durability rating, this 15.9mm thick blade provides dependable performance for general motor grader applications.
Compatibility and Installation for CAT Motor Graders
This curved cutting edge features 13 bolt holes sized for 5/8-inch plow bolts (18mm square shank), with hole spacing of 6.0 inches center to center and 3.0 inches from each end to the first hole. The 1,826.4mm overall length and 152.4mm width match CAT OEM specifications, ensuring direct bolt-on fitment for CAT 120G and numerous other models including 120, 120B, 120H, 12E, 12F, 12G, 12H, 130G, 135H, 140, 140G, 140H, 143H, 14E, and 322B.
