Lack Of Experience

Is Lack of Expertise Holding You Back?

JADCO • Rich F.2024-10-30T16:02:57-04:00

Can you even recognize if a lack of experience may be holding you back…Remember, 

YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU DON'T KNOW!!”

There’s no shame in seeking good advice.
And once you have it, YOU KNOW IT
.

In fact it’s the ONE thing “ALL TOP PRODUCERS” have in common. They invest in learning about new tricks, materials and techniques as they grow.  And they don’t blink at the cost when they find the goods and services they didn’t possess, to propel their way to the next level of performance.

They do a quick calculation based on the concept:

How much MORE can I make with the advice and products this expert shares with me?

By the way, when you absorb what they say, it is quickly apparent who is an expert vs. who wants you to think they are.

Once valuable advice is offered, it is amazing how many veteran business owners try hard to avoid helpful advice. They almost consider ignoring guidance on how they can improve, as a matter of pride. Clenching their attitude like an iron fist, as if to declare; “I don’t need no stinking help”. Do they realize that outlook will only hold them back? Perhaps in other aspects of life, it may be better to go it alone. But not in the wear resistant steel business. That’s an almost guaranteed path to suffer through one breakdown after another.

World Class Athletes Seek Out Multiple Coaches, So They Can Further Improve On A Lifetime Of Training.

Experience

Every successful business owner relies on experts.
WITH ZERO EXCEPTIONS.

There are times when all you need is a One-word clue…

HOW DO YOU SEE THINGS?

If you use wear resistant steel, it is time to evaluate better performing options from a new perspective.

CHROMEWELD ™ Ti Is An Excellent Example Of ‘Expertise In Action’.

Chromeweld Ti MVP

Does your wear application deliver more abrasion than a heat-treated alloy steel can handle?

Does it also have more impact than a Chrome Carbide Overlay (CCO) plate can tolerate?

Then CHROMEWELD ™ Ti is the perfect solution.

When our customers challenged us to further improve our industry leading CCO wear plate, we stepped up big time. Our metallurgists and welding engineers put their heads together, and developed a short list of alloys they were confident would create a unique wear plate to fit this challenging application.

Through strategic development and real-world testing and evaluation, Chromeweld ™ Ti was developed. Our customer’s results have been outstanding.

One Large Midwest Aggregate Producer Tripled The Life Of His Discharge Chute By Installing CHROMEWELD ™ Ti, over a heat-treated steel AR plate.

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.

Our entire Chromeweld family of CCO products are made at our headquarters in Harmony, PA, 30 minutes North of Pittsburgh. 

CHROMEWELD

To make certain we deliver the longest lasting materials to our customers, JADCO has created our own clad machines. This gives us total control over every aspect of making our industry leading CHROMEWELD overlay plate. 

Never consider the CHROMEWELD ™ family of products as a “One Size Fits All” wear plate.  Our customers are always looking to us for continuous improvement, and rely upon JADCO to continue to create new products, to address their specific wear challenges.

This further improves your wear plate performance results by having the Research and Development for these state-of-the-art wear resistant products. Each one is already completed and proven in real world applications, before you ever install them in your equipment.

JADCO CLAD

For over the last 44+ years JADCO has focused exclusively on delivering consistent, longer life for our customers.

We pride ourselves to deliver “Walk Away Results” to you. This means we are both able to walk away after you install JADCO wear resistant steel products, knowing you will not lose sleep wondering if these wear products will fail in your equipment at the worst possible time. Not with JADCO.

Now you can understand why JADCO delivers better performance results for our customers.

Allow us to help you today by calling 724.452.5252, or email info@jadcomfg.com.
We will schedule a meeting with one of our local wear plate specialists at a time that best fits your schedule.

Remember, the only thing you have to lose by not working with JADCO, are your profits.

When your standard wear plate gives out, be certain to give JADCO a shout!
