Welding Alloys Hardplate™ is a high-performance composite overlay wear plate designed to endure harsh environments and high levels of abrasion. Its unique construction, which includes a low carbon base material and a welded overlay of chromium and complex carbide alloys, makes it exceptionally durable and versatile. Hardplate™ can be shaped, formed, and fabricated with additional parts such as bolts, studs and handles added to the plates that offer solutions tailored to specific applications.
In a recent project completed for a customer by Welding Alloys, Hardplate™ was used in the cement industry to provide enhanced wear resistance for areas in a raw mill. The project’s success underscored the plate’s ability to be formed and shaped without losing its wear-resistant properties. This makes Hardplate™ an ideal choice for industries where equipment is subject to extreme conditions and high wear, such as mining, cement, and power generation.
The comprehensive range of wear plate products, including Hardplate™, Hardplate™ FlowMax, Hardlite™ and Tuffplate™, caters to different needs, from lightweight applications such as chutes and hoppers to those requiring high-impact resistance. By choosing the appropriate wear plate variant, industries around the globe can significantly extend the service life of their equipment, reduce downtime, and lower overall maintenance costs.
