JADCO DIFFERENCE

What Makes JADCO Different?

JADCO • Rich F.2026-09-24T11:25:19-04:00

We often hear…“What makes JADCO different from all the other companies selling wear plate, when they all claim they have the longest lasting steel?”

There are plenty of answers why JADCO products are your best choice:

1. You aren’t high pressured into immediately buying the first product discussed, without knowing if it is right for your job.

2. We don’t make up answers we may not have at that moment. We’ll research the best solutions and review them with you, allowing you to determine the best options for your specific project. Guessing at an answer does not help anyone.

3. The CHROMEWELD ™ family of Chrome Carbide Overlay Plate, has more specialized abrasion resistant application varieties than any other clad plate manufacturer.

When asked about a certain wear application, most salespeople immediately start rattling off their product stats regardless if they are relative to the conversation.

Then they claim you need to buy from them now, before the price goes up.

JADCO sales pros ask more questions, allowing you to have the ability to clarify your situation.

We’ll want you to confirm:

• What materials you have used previously?

• What were those results?

• What do you consider reasonable wear life?

• What would qualify as a ‘home run’ for greatly improved wear life?

Here is an actual conversation with a customer who had not used QT-PLUS ® previously:

JADCO IS DIFFERENT

“We’ve been using Brand X plate for years from different suppliers. They always fail at four years, regardless where we order them. We believe if we invest a little more, we can achieve double our standard wear life.”

AND WE DID!

This is exactly how a true partnership begins.

• No Immediate Sales Pitch.

• No Pressure To Place An Immediate Purchase Order.

• We Have A Real Conversation; Exclusively Focused On Uncovering Your Challenges So We Can Deliver The Best Results For Our Customer.

Rather than assuming we knew what they wanted, we asked the question:

“What are you thinking of doing?”

“We’re planning to rebuild the loading deck in six months, and we’ll need the material to last double what it did last time.”

Or perhaps they had a unplanned breakdown:

“The drive chain caught and pulled up several feet of log deck, and we need to replace it right away.”

In each case, we simply gave them the attention to tell us what they want and when they want it.

That’s our real objective.

JADCO is Different

Our objective is NOT to just sell steel, but it’s to partner with clients and improve their wear life results.

JADCO Sales Professionals seek first to understand your specific challenge.

Only when we know what you’re hoping to accomplish, we can determine what JADCO products will genuinely help them get it.
That’s far better for entering into a relationship than telling a near stranger what they should buy before they’ve been asked what their problems are.

As North America’s leading manufacturer of Chrome Carbide Overlay (CCO) plate, you can depend on the results you get from JADCO.

Our entire CHROMEWELD ™ family of CCO products are made at our headquarters in Harmony, PA, located 30 minutes North of Pittsburgh.

JADCO CLAD

JADCO created our own clad machines to make certain we deliver the longest lasting materials to our customers,. This gives us complete control over every aspect in making our industry leading CHROMEWELD™ overlay plate.

Never consider the CHROMEWELD™ family of products as a “One Size Fits All” wear plate.  Our customers look to us for continuous wear resistant improvement. They rely upon JADCO to create unique products, to address their specific wear challenges. 

This further improves your wear plate performance results. It’s like having your own Research and Development for state-of-the-art wear resistant products; without the investment.

Each CHROMEWELD product has been proven in real world applications for years, before you ever install them in your equipment.

For the last 46 years, JADCO has focused exclusively on delivering consistent, longer equipment life for our customers.

By strictly focusing on improving your current results, we look at the wear process differently. This is why we deliver better performance results, and lower cost of ownership for our customers. 

Allow us to help you today by emailing us at info@jadcomfg.com or calling (724) 452-5252.

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 is profit.
