Are You Ready For Winter Weather?
JADCO • Rich F.2025-12-10T14:45:14-05:00Is Your Snow Removal Equipment Ready?
The colder the temperatures, the greater you need to monitor your wear resistant steel on your snow removal equipment. Colder temperatures lower the impact resistance of any steel.
The December 2025 Polar Vortex has arrived with a vengeance, bringing record cold and snow across most of the USA.
Snowplow skids protect the structure from wearing with the constant friction from the roadways. They support the weight of the plow to minimize wear on the blade.
Here Is How To Tell If Your Skids Are Made Of Commodity AR400 Steel:
They Resist Wear For The First Few Storms, Then Are Completely Worn Away?
Sound Familiar?
This occurs when your steel is not the same hardness through the thickness of the steel. JADCO Offers Two Better Options For Longer Life:
HARDGUARD ™ & CHROMEWELD ™ 600.
JADCO HARDGUARD ™ buttons and donuts offer superior wear protection, while being easy to install. High Chrome White Iron for wear protection bonded onto a mild steel backing plate, allows you to quickly weld them in place.
If your equipment needs to protect a greater surface area, CHROMEWELD ™ 600 is designed to battle abrasion with mild impact.
Available in a variety of thickness’.
An example where larger surface area needs protecting, is the ski on this asphalt paving machine. CHROMEWELD ™ 600 is selected by several paving OEM’s to battle abrasion with maximum life.The mild steel backing plate allows for easy welding onto the mounting angle irons.
