WEAR STEEL FOR A GREENER FUTURE
Opting for JADCO’s wear steel products for your applications and equipment not only enhances performance, but also minimizes our collective environmental footprint.
How does JADCO wear resistant steel products reduce your environmental impact? Steel making is tremendously energy intensive.
Sixty (60) TONS of greenhouse gases (GHG) are produced in making one ton of steel.
Have you been replacing your AR500 wear plate every year or two? Then it makes perfect sense if you are using a higher quality, longer lasting wear plate; you will not have to replace it for three years or longer.
And that is a significant savings in GHG that is not going in the environment. Not to mention your labor savings to remove and replace your generic wear plate every year. Plus, you will not have to buy the same underperforming wear steel two more times.
With JADCO’s superior blend of strength, durability, and through-hardness, our wear steel enables the construction of robust, lightweight machinery using less material. This not only extends your equipment’s lifespan, but also promotes resource efficiency, reduces material waste, and contributes to a greener tomorrow.
Rather than continuing to add patches over patches, removing failed wear plate and using JADCO QT-PLUS ® prevents increasing the weight and reducing the carrying capacity of your haul trucks.
Beyond longer wear life, JADCO steel provides you with additional benefits throughout the lifespan of your vehicle:
- Greater load carrying capacity
- Better fuel efficiency
- Reduced wear and stress on bearing and tires
JADCO is committed to proper environmental stewardship. On your behalf.
JADCO’s Flagship Product In Reducing GHG Is JADCO’s QT-PLUS ®.
This through hardened wear resistant steel delivers greater performance IN YOUR MOST CHALLENGING WEAR APPLICATIONS than the various AR400, AR450 or AR500 steel plates you have used previously.
Being able to create wear resistant steel having the same hardness through the entire thickness of the steel, demands you accurately control the alloying chemistry with precise heat treating.
Doesn’t Every Steel Company Make Their Wear Plate Last As Long As JADCO QT-PLUS ®?
The quick answer is No; although the attention to alloy content required at the steel mill is available to anyone. Yet most wear plate distributors choose to reduce the proper quantities and percentages of these essential alloying elements, to get a lower selling price.
When you cut back on these critical alloys, wear life drops, and it is always the customer who suffers.
Since our founding in 1980, JADCO has focused exclusively on delivering consistent, longer equipment life for our customers.
We are able to deliver better results to our customers, because we think differently. How? By strictly focusing on improving your current results.
