Problems Are Continuous

Problems Are Continuous

JADCO • Rich F.2024-03-27T18:56:33-04:00

While anyone connected to the internet has access to limitless information, it does have an unseen side effect. 

How could this partnership ever deliver better results?

Such an alliance squanders what little time is available to accomplish every other task they are assigned.
This is frustrating to them because the unproductive lost time can never be recovered.

bad wear plate
Have you already thrown in the towel, thinking your system design has areas where major wear is inevitable? Have you accepted this is just how long any wear plate lasts? JADCO would love an opportunity to show you that is limited thinking.

It’s hard enough trying to communicate with all of the other people in your department. Working with multiple heavy industries, JADCO’s family of wear resistant steel products are used to attain your next level of performance. Certainly, this requires effective communication with a diverse team of people. When everyone pulls on the same end of the rope, progress is guaranteed.

Let’s face it: Problems Are Continuous.


They will never go away without focused effort. After we conquer two or three major issues, we can concentrate on your smaller challenges.

If our customers had zero wear problems, we recognize they wouldn’t need JADCO.

Current customers using our industry leading products, first arrived at JADCO because their former vendors were unable to provide improvements with their wear problems.

What they needed was professional guidance and honest direction to finally control their wear related equipment headaches. Accomplishing these goals earns JADCO customers for life.

Within your own company, it is likely you also suffer with wear problems of various concern.

Those endless issues may not be catastrophic today, but they continue to eat away at your limited labor and material maintenance budgets. 

Perhaps it is not a big problem, yet the issue never actually goes away.

When you get up tomorrow, you work hard to keep production rolling. And along the way you try to eliminate these constant wear challenges when you can find the time. 

If only you had some extra time.
It’s all part of this game we call life.

But Until You Change Your Materials or Process, Nothing Will Improve.
Now Is The Time To Consider
QT-PLUS ®.

JADCO’s QT-PLUS ® delivers greater performance IN YOUR MOST CHALLENGING WEAR APPLICATIONS than the various AR400 heat treated steel wear plates you have used previously. 

soft steel

It is easy to spot if your wear plate is not the same hardness in the center as on the face.
Once the 0.020” thick harder surface wears away, the softer insides go away as fast as the crème center in an Oreo® cookie.

Creating 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 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 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.

For the past 43+ years, JADCO has provided the longest lasting wear resistant steel to heavy industry.  As the industry leader, we know what will deliver the best results for your equipment.

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 any sleep wondering if these wear products will fail in your equipment at the worst possible time.  Not with JADCO.

At JADCO, we think differently by strictly focusing on your results.  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.
