Abstract: An example track shoe, cutting edge, or other component of a machine is formed in a heated process, such as hot-rolling followed by air-hardening. The air-hardening process involves cooling the component by flowing air over the component (e.g., air cooling), such that the component is cooled at a controlled rate. During the air-cooling process, such as in the range of about 250° C. to about 1100° C., the component may be machined, such as by shearing, punching, drilling, etc. The machining may form the final shape of the component. As the air-hardening process is completed, and the component approaches room temperature, the component may have at least 5% bainitic crystal composition, and as high as greater than 80% bainitic crystal composition, resulting in relatively high hardness and fracture toughness. The final track shoe may have a hardness between about 40 HRC and 55 HRC.

Abstract: A cutter bit for a work tool on a machine includes a leading end, conical-shaped tip portion, a rearward, frustoconical-shaped tip portion extending axially rearwardly from the leading end, conical-shaped tip portion, an annular ledge extending radially outwardly from a trailing edge of the rearward, frustoconical-shaped tip portion, a frustoconical-shaped body portion extending axially rearwardly from an outer circumferential edge of the annular ledge, a cylindrical collar portion extending axially rearwardly from a trailing edge of the frustoconical-shaped body portion, and a trailing end, cylindrical-shaped shank portion extending axially rearwardly from the cylindrical collar portion. The cutter bit may also include a plurality of circumferentially-spaced ribs projecting radially outwardly from an outer peripheral surface of at least one of the leading end, conical-shaped tip portion, the rearward, frustoconical-shaped tip portion, or the frustoconical-shaped body portion.

Abstract: A tool bit comprises a shank portion defining a longitudinal axis, and a working portion extending downwardly axially from the shank portion. The working portion includes a rear region, a front working region, a first side region and a second side region, and the first side region and the second side region define an angle of extension measured in a plane perpendicular to the longitudinal axis, forming a wider front working region than the rear region in a plane perpendicular to the longitudinal axis.
