qualities – the company claims it can outlast chromium carbide plates by as much as two to four times. Te sheets can be cut, rolled or formed, and three different thicknesses are offered: 10mm, 13mm and 19mm. Standard size is 1,220mm x 2,740mm. Temperature grading is up to 600°C. Where greater impact resistance is needed Castolin recommends the EutecDur CDP 4923, a martensitic iron-based alloy. Te material is made up of a very fine dispersion of hard and tough titanium carbides in a tough matrix. Te Abreco Wear System from Canadian Wear Technologies is an engineered solution developed using material knowledge and application experience to create a comprehensive fixed plant protection package. One example is the result of the first phase of the installation of the Wear System with an iron ore (Taconite) customer. Te installation was completed on the surge pits of side by side 60 x 89 A-C

crushers. Te cycle time on 96 liners improved from 13 weeks to 104, and liner changes went from 15 liners every two weeks to 12 liners every 13 weeks, saving an estimated CDN$800,000 per year per crusher. l
Castolin’s CDP range of plates is used in diggers and is a popular choice due to its strength and durability.
