Abstract
A reinforced wear member for use in earth-engaging applications. The wear member may have a body with an embedded core. The body may have a leading end and an opposing trailing end. The core may have a front end and an opposing back end wherein a height of the front end is less than a height of the back end. The body may be comprised of a first composition and the core may be comprised of a second composition that is different from the first composition. The first composition may be steel and the second composition may be ceramic. The ceramic core may increase the abrasive resistance of the wear member.
