Wear Plate Sales Job Versus Wear Plate Career Expert
Jobs selling wear plate are easy to come by. There are far fewer Wear Plate Professionals whose careers have made them the experts in their industry.
By comparison, you can easily tell the sales professionals by their dedication in assisting the customer in every possible way. This means being skilled enough to ask additional clarifying questions, when the customer orders a wear resistant product that will not work well for their application.
Here Is A Perfect Example
The photo below shows a jackladder log deck. Our industry leading QT- PLUS ® wear plate has been placed over the existing AR400 and AR450 steel. The background generic AR steel plates doesn’t shine nearly as much because it contains less Nickel. This means it certainly will not last as long in this log deck application.
The high Nickel content that gives JADCO’s QT-PLUS ® a shiny surface, is a significant reason it delivers 3 to 5 times longer life than generic AR400 steel. This papermill woodyard log deck uses QT-PLUS ® so they do not have to replace the steel as frequently.
The Point Is…
Their prior steel sales person happily continued selling them more AR450 wear plates. The fact their suggested steel didn’t last ‘Way Longer’ than AR400 like he claimed, not only didn’t bother him; it didn’t even register in his mind as an issue for the customer. Make that their former customer.
After Carefully Evaluating The Amount Of Impact With Abrasion, JADCO recommended QT-PLUS ®.
Creating wear resistant steel having the same high-hardness through the entire thickness of the steel, demands we accurately control the alloying chemistry with precise heat treating. That is where the high Nickel content makes such a difference.
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.
