Don’t Let Your Plant Shut You Down

During a recent meeting with a new mine manager, we discussed their JADCO success stories, comparing those results on their previous wear challenges.

Our conversation touched on former companies where people were told “Not To Spend Any Money”; after their maintenance needs exceeded their annual budget.

He said, “You Can Shut Your Plant Down. Don’t Ever Let Your Plant Shut You Down.”

In creating their products, heavy industrial equipment needs to run all the time. Downtime is expensive.

Unfortunately, Wear Never Ends.

The best you can do is postpone the necessary downtime until you can replace it on your schedule. Never run it to failure. That is the fastest way to business bankruptcy.


JADCO Earned Their Trust After Updating Their Wash Plant Wear Plate

The greatest wear challenge had been the bottom wear plates in the wash plant. Previously they used AR400 steel, which didn’t last an entire season. Since they produce aggregate used for road construction, when the wash plant shuts down, everything grinds to a halt.

The mine owner searched online for longer lasting material, and found www.jadcomfg.com where he inquired about CHROMEWELD 600 ™.

CHROMEWELD 600 Chart
Chrome Carbide Overlay Plates (CCO) from most vendors cannot be formed, or the overlay cracks and often falls out in chunks. This wash plant application required the CHROMEWELD 600 ™ to be formed into an arc containing multiple radii.
Few clad plate manufacturers can accurately form CCO without it to the exacting specifications required, and fit better than OEM parts.

JADCO Does This Every Day.

What Was The Customer’s Results?

After nearly two years of constant production, they reported the CHROMEWELD 600 ™ wear plate, “It just shined up. Didn’t show any wear at all.”

If Your Current Wear Plate Doesn’t Add Value, Stop Using It.

Had they continued to use AR400, by now they would be replacing the AR steel for the 3rd time. By investing a little more up front than their previous sub-standard wear plate, the CHROMEWLED 600 ™ has outperformed every other wear steel they had previously tested.

JADCO makes a variety of CCO wear resistant steel products to take on YOUR PERSONAL WORST WEAR HEADACHE.

As the leading manufacturer of Chrome Carbide Overlay (CCO) plate in the USA, you can depend on the results you get from JADCO. Most steel distributors buy foreign CCO which has little carbide content, and even less quality control.
