DO YOU WANT A TRANSACTION OR A TRANSFORMATION?
JADCO • Rich F.2022-08-17T10:44:07-04:00If JADCO was only interested in a transaction – we would do anything we could to get a sale from you today.
But that was not Jim Davison’s thinking on August 8, 1980, when he established the James A. Davison Company. Today it is better known in the wear-resistant steel industry as JADCO. Jim knew when he helped JADCO’s customers succeed, everyone wins.

Here is Jim Davison in the early days of JADCO. From the very start, he focused on transforming your wear-resistant steel applications to improve your equipment’s lifecycle, production, and profitability.
Jim Davison was presented this drawing of him at the celebration of JADCO’s 40th Anniversary on August 8, 2020.
When you implement JADCO wear solution products, you are taking the first step in TRANSFORMING your business to the next step.
By taking the smart choice, you become transformed into something more than what you are today. By continuing your relationship with JADCO, you know your wear plate will be performing at the industry’s highest level.
Are you throwing away your capital investment?
Do you continue to buy the same underperforming steel time after time; then wring your hands when it wears out short of your expected time frame?
Our customers expect positive results when they use our materials in their equipment. We only get one chance to make a good first impression. And we make certain JADCO always delivers.
What is the result you need to get in your application? Is it longer life? Or more predictable wear, so you can effectively plan your next replacement schedule? Or should we focus on helping you to engineer away the current bottle neck in your system?
At JADCO we don’t look at a problem from outside the box; we live outside the box. Isn’t it time for you to consider what might be possible to improve your current challenge?
With the materials, knowledge, workmanship and resources available to you, JADCO can deliver your best possible outcome.
Our existing customers not only see results first hand, but realize by investing in JADCO products, they are not constantly chasing problems all day, every day.
This allows them time to focus on refining other aspects in their business and continue to improve their process.
This is why JADCO’s percentage of repeat customer orders leads the wear resistant steel industry. When they first test our materials and see they indeed do deliver longer life, it gives them the confidence to invest in additional application improvements. This is how you develop a valued partnership.
JADCO’s QT Plus ® delivers greater performance IN YOUR WEAR APPLICATIONS than the various AR400 steel plates you have used previously.
Being able to create wear resistant steel to have 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 specific details required at the steel mill in Pennsylvania are available to anyone. Yet most wear plate distributors choose to reduce the proper quantities and percentages of these essential alloying elements just to get a lower price.
For the last 42 years JADCO has focused exclusively on delivering consistent, longer equipment life for our customers.
Now you understand why we are able to deliver better results to our customers. We think differently by strictly focusing to improve your current results. 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!
