Wear Plate – CC1500

Reduce your operating costs with the CC1500 chromium carbide wearplate

The CC1500 Wearplate will outlast quenched and tempered steels by up to 12 times and white iron by up to 4 times. It maintains the efficiency of chutes, bins, hoppers, buckets and other material handling equipment because it is quickly polished by abrading materials. This produces a surface with a low coefficient of friction, which lessens the likelihood of hang-ups.

These properties render this product suitable for use under extreme operating conditions where the cost of downtime far outweighs the initial expenditure or the capital outlay of replacement.

Where handling or weight factor are a consideration, the CC1500 Wearplate offers substantial weight savings for the same wearlife as heat treated alloy steels or white irons.

Manufacture

CC1500 is a highly effective wear resistant plate which is manufactured using a submerged arc welding process whereby extremely hard chromium carbides are deposited as an overlay into a mild steel or chromium carbide backing plate.

The final weld deposit, or matrix, is hard but very tough and gives excellent wear and impact resistance.

Fixing

The plate may be welded into position or alternatively may be fixed using plow bolts or stud bolts.

Its small bead weld deposit allows for easy formability around radiused sections and is also responsible for its remarkable impact resistance.
