I have now worked with Wear-Con for approximately 12 years on various problems and issues we’ve experienced in our cement manufacturing plant. The very first time I talked with them about an issue, they offered the correct solution for our problem. They are always forthcoming in helping me to try to solve problems we’re experiencing at the plant. Also, everyone that I have ever talked to from Wear-Con is pleasant to deal with and friendly.”

Area Leader for Midwest cement plant. This Midwest cement plant was continually having to replace chrome carbide overlay wear plating in two high-wear areas in their two Vertical Atox 50 Raw Mills—the curved walls and the separator vanes—where a constant barrage of pulverized raw material (limestone, clay, sand, and mill scale) catches up in the air draft and literally sandblasts both the walls and the vanes resulting in severe airborne sliding abrasion.

Due to this abrasion on the walls, his maintenance team was having to replace the decimated 2’x4’x1/2” chrome carbide overlay plate by cutting out the bad and welding in the new every two weeks. The process usually took three people, at $24 per hour per worker, all day to replace one 2’x4’ piece of plate. In addition, the chrome carbide overlay plate was costing approximately $1500 per piece. His maintenance team performed this repair on normal PM days designed for mill maintenance. Both manpower and material drained a lot of resources.

The main goal was to get a product that lasted longer than two weeks in these curved walls of the Vertical Atox 50 Raw Mill. April 2013 is when Wear-Con’s SHC800 Panels were introduced as the solution to his problem. That job cost $17,500.00 to cover an area that was 9’ wide by 11’ tall. Wear-Con’s solution consisted of fifty 13 ¾”x17 ¾” x ¾” and eight 13 ¾”x8 ¾”x ¾” custom cast into a curve SHC800 Wear Panels that were all RubberLine backed for cushion and bolted into place with two bolts.

Features & Benefits

Wear-Con BarricAid™ is a new generation of rubber embedded ceramic wear tile composite panel. They are a combination of 1/2”, wear resistant, WC90™ High Alumina Ceramic HexTiles, vulcanized in 1/4” resilient rubber to a 1/4” mild steel base. BarricAid ’s™ WC90™ High Alumina Ceramic HexTile surface provides exceptional resistance to wear, while the elastic property of the rubber effectively dampens the impact forces which can crack ceramics. The rubber also helps to substantially reduce the vibrations, sounds, and the impact shock generated from impacting material. BarricAid™ composite panel are suitable for feeders, chutes, bins, transfer points, in conveyor systems, screen feed plates, mill discharge chutes, bunkers, etc.

Installation

Wear-Con's BarricAid™ composite panel can be easily bolted into place using the four existing M16 x 40 threaded studs welded on the back of every panel. Four matching nuts and washers are also provided with each panel.

Technical Specifications

BarricAid ’s™ rubber has a tensile strength of 16MPa, a break extension of 450-500%, a shore hardness of 60±5, a break permanent deformation of 30%, a peel strength between rubber and ceramic/rubber of 6MPa, and a bonding strength between rubber and ceramic of 4MPa. BarricAid ’s™ WC90™ High Alumina Ceramic HexTile have Moh’s Scale 9 hardness; a 300,000 psi comprehensive strength; a 45,000 psi fluxural strength; and a 24,000 psi tensile strength. The applicable temperature is between -4° F to 302° F, but best if it is below 248° F. If the rubber is working for a long time in a high temperature, the life of rubber will be diminished.

Sizes

BarricAid™ composite panel are 12”x 12” wide by 1” thick.

Features & Benefits

Wear-Con Grizzly/Grouser Bars are reinforced on the topside to make them last much longer. Grizzly/Grouser Bars are designed to replace existing bars that suffer from severe impact and abrasion issues.

Installation

Wear-Con Grizzly/Grouser Bars can be fitted with bolts or welded into place with a low hydrogen rod such as AWS spec 7018 on the base metal.

Technical Specifications

Wear-Con Grizzly/Grouser Bars can be reinforced with Rampart™ WC810™or WC880™.Rampart™ Carbide Technology is an extremely strong abrasion resistant composite consisting of complex carbides with a minimum hardness of 770 Hv, and carbides up to 1500 Hv suspended in a metallic matrix metallurgically bonded to a steel backing plate. Rampart™ has a eutectic composite that demonstrates very high abrasion and impact resistant properties that substantially reduce wear while providing considerable savings in down time and lost production. The Rampart™ Bar is stitch welded to “cap” the Grizzly/Grouser Bars.
