| CRODON wear plate
has shown remarkable resistance to impact in field and bench
testing. In coal and aggregate operations CRODON wear plate
has shown that it improves the base material's normal tolerance
to impact related wear. CRODON Plus wear plate has been especially
resistant to impact, including ballistics test parameters.
Two product groups are recommended for impact
conditions:
CRODON Standard wear plate (½"
base thickness) - CRODON standard wear plate outperformed
standard AR400 through hardened steel by a factor of more
than 3 to 1. The base material will dent but the protective
CRODON surface stays attached, providing a hard, protective
layer.
CRODON Plus wear plate (1/4" - ½"
base thickness) - CRODON Plus resists initial indentation
8 times better than standard through hardened AR400 plate.
Field applications show life cycle improvements of up to 12
times better than unprotected AR400 steel.
The following report gives detailed results
of ball drop testing compared to other materials.
