In-House Design
We are equipped with AutoCAD facilities, allowing us to offer a tailored design and manufacturing service for many types of equipment as well as the supply and fitting of hardfaced components.
Unique Integral Countersunk Bolt Fixing
This feature, developed by us, allows countersunk bolts to be inserted into the wear plate before application of the hardfacing. This provides essential security fixings which overall prevents preferential wear over the bolt heads, a common problem with other fixing methods.

Our Featured projects
Fabricated Lobster Back Pipe End
We recently supplied a 2m internal diameter fabricated lobster back pipe end to a customer in the dredging industry. They were experiencing excessive wear, and working with them we redesigned the pipe end to incorporate 43 hardfaced tiles to protect the primary wear areas. Each tile is attached with our integral bolt system and hardfaced with our patented WRST Sintered Tungsten Carbide wear protection, offering the flexibility to replace individual tiles when required.
Paddle Feeder Arms
Recently we manufactured six full supply 11ft 6″ Paddle Feeder Arms for the steel industry. We Hard surfaced them with our patented Grade WRST Sintered Tungsten Carbide on the primary wear areas and Complex Chromium Carbide deposits elsewhere.
Vibrating Screen Deck Mats
One of our latest big projects is a set of 8.5m x 3.5m Vibrating Screen Deck Mats. These have been hardfaced with Chrome Carbide hardfacing.
