The outside heel of an excavator bucket takes more wear than any other area of the bucket including the insides. Bucket design like a spade lip buckets wear faster on the outside teeth. Wear, is a usage and regular checks game, and to play it with a margin of profitability, quality of the wear parts, and its longevity in the field can help reach that goal. The teeth below are after 806 hours of usage.
It is necessary for most operators to move the most earth by using the best tools available, the Black Cat RV system is one of them. A great GET product can help you save on
their investment, especially with a GET tooth which reduces the rate of wear.

Quality Wear teeth works well with a good maintenance plan to keep costs down and productivity up, increasing availability of wear range and working hours delivered to the operator. The amount of useable metal on the black cat RV is considerably a result of its advanced manufacturing and quality practices. Where point of contact wear is reduced with the RV teeth system. It is evident that the RV series from Black Cat Wear Parts delivers value on the dollar for your mining operations.

CRD provides custom wear solutions for your specific industrial needs and recently, we worked with the Miller Asphalt Plant in Port Colborne, Ontario who were looking to refurbish their drag line against high abrasion wear.

Miller Asphalt plant

Not all applications are the same, that is why consulting an expert on the high-wear areas of a production plant is necessary to extract enough performance to give you value on the dollar and standing the test of time.

In a typical asphalt plant, the drag lines are a high abrasion pathway requiring extreme abrasion solutions, Mike Choma our in-house wear consultant after perusing the drag line flooring and wall skirting recommended the high abrasion resistant chrome carbide plates. The carbide overlay plate is great for fine particulate and extreme abrasion situations, helping to extend wear life at elevated temperatures due to its chemical composition.
