HOW TO MAKE YOUR EQUIPMENT BETTER
JADCO • Rich F.2022-06-22T05:49:00-04:00You have a lot of money, time, and sweat equity invested in your production equipment. Whether it’s new equipment, or if it’s well-piled and has seen several seasons, you need to constantly do what you can to maximize and improve your uptime and equipment longevity.
The wear plates in your systems are designed to protect the machine structure, and often contain sacrificial components you expect to change out periodically.
“That Doesn’t Mean They Should Wear Out Rapidly”
Founded in 1980, JADCO started earning our reputation by reverse engineering wear-resistant steel applications for coal mining equipment. Back then, our customers depended on us to deliver longer life in their mining equipment, and now today, in over seventeen industries and growing.

You can tell JADCO IS doing things the right way when the industry-leading original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) are offering JADCO QT-PLUS® plates as options for maximum wear life.
Highly respected manufacturers in Coal Mining, Hard Rock Mining, Asphalt Equipment, Foundry, Glass, and other industries utilize JADCO products. They realize that to have their equipment out-perform their competition, they need to use the best materials possible.
JADCO points out the important details you need to look for in anyone’s wear-resistant steel sales literature. This information shows you where other companies expose shortcomings in their products that result in poor performance. Even more critical is what they reveal when important information is missing.
Armed with the proper evidence, it’s easy to choose the longest-lasting wear steel for your applications before you write a purchase order. With JADCO, you don’t have to endure high-pressure salespeople who are only out to make the sale and move on to the “deal. “ Experience the JADCO difference; you will be glad you partnered with the best manufacturer of impact and abrasion-resistant steel and have peace of mind that you’ve made your equipment JADCO TOUGH.
“If you don’t educate yourself, you’ll never get out of the starting blocks, because you’ll spend all your money making foolish decisions.”
– Daymond John, investor on Shark Tank
JADCO doesn’t make your production equipment. We make the wear plate perform better in your equipment, to prevent breakdowns and failures.
JADCO’s QT-PLUS® delivers greater performance IN YOUR WEAR APPLICATIONS, providing extended wear exceeding that of the various AR400 steel plates you have previously used. 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.

Why Doesn’t Every Steel Company Make Their Wear Plate Last As Long As JADCO QT-PLUS?
The attention to detail required at the steel mill in Pennsylvania is available to anyone. Yet most wear plate distributors choose to reduce the proper quantities and percentages of the essential alloying elements just to get a lower price.
For over the last 40+ years, JADCO has focused exclusively on delivering consistent, longer equipment life for our customers. Now, we hope you understand why we are able to deliver the best results to our customers. We think differently by strictly focusing to improve your current results.
