SANWP WEAR PLATE SERVICES

Wear is defined as the progressive loss or unwanted removal of material from a surface.

 

Wear plates are expendable items used to prevent excessive wear or damage to expensive equipment. These plates, which are subjected to high loads, are important components in some metalworking machinery and are also known as wear parts. Designed to wear and be easily replaced, they ensure the longevity and efficiency of the machinery.

 

Sanweld’s long-lasting wear plates with full steel backing or extruded aluminium profiles provide all-around wear protection. These plates can be tailor-made to fit most applications, from light to extra heavy duty.

APPLICATIONS

​

Wear plates are used to prevent damage to main machinery due to abrasion or impact and to increase the life of the machine.

Machines or components that might require wear plates include:

  • Crushers

  • Chutes

  • Fan Blades

  • Shredders

  • Wear Blades

  • Choppers

  • Scrapers

  • Casting Equipment

  • Mining Tools

  • Chippers

  • Feeders

  • Earth Moving Equipment

  • Cement Mill Impeller

  • Any other component subjected to abrasion, impact, or any form of wear.​

SANWELD WEAR PLATE RANGE

 Wear Plate Dimensions:

  • Base Plate Dimension: As per requirement

  • Base Plate Thickness: 5mm and above

  • Cladding Thickness: 3mm and above

 

ADVANTAGES

  • Ability to cover large surface areas at relatively low cost

  • Ease of cutting and forming to shape, installation, and replacement by conventional fabrication technologies including drilling, bending, bolting, and welding

  • The full steel backing offers stability and allows safe installation using through bolts or stud welding

  • Due to a long wear life, service intervals are longer, less maintenance is required, and unscheduled breakdowns are avoided

SALIENT FEATURES

  • The wear-resisting side of the SANWELD wear plate has smooth wide weld bands that are fused together to form an even, flat, and continuous surface.

  • During the manufacturing process, cracks develop at right angles to the surface due to stress concentration. These cracks do not penetrate beyond the carbide layer and are essential for stress relieving.

  • These plates are usually cut by plasma arc but can also be cut with gouging/cutting electrodes and carbon arc.

  • Wear plates can be fixed to the mother plate by welding, bolting, or the use of studs.
