Reduce Stress

Reduce Stress Using CHROMEWELD™ 600

JADCO • Rich F.2024-07-26T12:53:24-04:00

CHROMEWELD™ 600, JADCO’s industry leading CCO (Chromium Carbide Overlay) plate features benefits beyond extreme abrasion resistance that other CCO plate companies cannot match.

JADCO CLAD
JADCO created our own clad machines to produce this abrasion resistant superstar. This allows total control over every aspect to create our CHROMEWELD ™ overlay plate. A major benefit is CHROMEWELD ™ 600 will lay flatter than the CCO from our competitors.

We Guarantee Your Clad Plate Is Flat.
Why?
Because Every Single CHROMEWELD ™ 600 Plate Is Rolled Flat In Both Directions.

Why is this important?

Drag Floor
This photo shows the drag floor in an asphalt paving machine. The heat from the hot asphalt mix is dragged up into the auger to be placed onto the roadway.

Having minimal clearance between the drag bars and the floor allows the equipment to be efficient, and not have the sticky asphalt build up and jam the drag chains.

As the OEM supplier to the leaders of the asphalt paving industry, they have tested every CCO available.

One Key Factor Why They Use CHROMEWELD ™ 600:
High Heat Can Cause Inexpensive CCO To Buckle And Warp.

Inexpensive CCO plate is welded in the flat position. The result of 4 qty large diameter welding wires going at the same time, creates extreme heat buildup. This causes the plates to warp, rising up to 6” above the welding table.

Competitor Plate
This photo shows how even after attempting to flatten their clad plates, competitor’s plates do not lay flat as this stack clearly shows.
FLAT CW600
CHROMEWELD ™ 600 plates arrive flat and ready to go into service. When you observe the difference, it is easy to see there is no comparison in quality.
Cracked Competitor Plate
The combination of heat input from the heat of overlay welding, followed by trying to force the plates flat, it creates tremendous stress in the plates. This results in numerous cracks in the chrome carbide overlay, where fine materials will attack the mild steel base plate. This results in rapid overlay failure, giving you zero wear protection.

This is critical when competitor’s CCO is utilized in high heat applications such as foundries or steel mills. With high heat, these plates will buckle and go back to the warped condition they were previously.

JADCO Rolls CHROMWELD ™ 600 In Both Directions, Assuring Your Plate Is Flat. This Also Removes Residual Stress Without Adding Another Step.

Isn’t It Time You Put The Best CCO Plate On The Market To Work Protecting Your Equipment?

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. 

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.

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 both know you will not lose sleep wondering if these wear products will fail in your equipment at the worst possible time. No lost sleep with JADCO on the job.

Now you understand why we are able to deliver better results to our customers. We think differently by strictly focusing on improving your current results. This is why we deliver 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.
