Industries and solutions
Equipment surfaces that can withstand both impact wear and sliding wear are essential for extracting, moving, processing, milling, and recycling minerals and materials. Using Hardox® wear parts and Duroxite® overlays, we can extend the service life of equipment – sometimes by a factor of 2x to 4x.
Mining and quarrying

Mines and quarries are a big part of our business – and with good reason. We’re adept at handling aggressive abrasives on production-critical equipment, such as:
- Vertical shaft impact (VSI) rotor plates in Hardox® 600
- Grizzly feeders, baskets, bars, and vibrating screens
- Crusher liners in Hardox® 500 and Hardox® 600
- Chutes, both liners and entire structures
- Hoppers
- Skips and bins
- Cone, jaw, and gyratory crushers
- Screens in Hardox® 500 Tuf with clamps in Hardox® 450
- Screen decks, using Strenx® 700 for structure and Hardox® 500 for screen
- Trommel screens
- Launders
- Grinding Wheels
- Hammer mills
- Ball mills
- Screw conveyors
- Cyclones
- Slurry pipelines
- Bucket rebuilds for excavators and wheel loaders
- Bucket cutting edges
- Excavator booms and sticks (arms) in Strenx® 700
- Rammer jammer attachments
- Dump truck liners and protective edges
Cement/concrete plants
Hardox® 500 Tubes engineered as discharged pipes for cement bulkers increased their service life by 50% – while being half as thick as the old S355 tubes.
Separator blades made in Hardox® 500 (8mm) for a Polysius® mill.
Liner plates in Duroxite® 100-10+5 for raw mill gas chambers.
Nozzle ring guide pin using Duroxite® 100, 4mm welding electrode hardfacing for a Polysius® VRM.
Nozzle ring wear plate for guide pin made in mild steel with Duroxite® 100 – 10+10mm CCO overlay for a Polysius® vertical roller mill.
The crushing, grinding, and mixing that goes into production of cement and concrete is notoriously abrasive on the plant’s wear components. To address extreme wear situations, we can use a combination of Hardox® Wearparts and Duroxite® overlays. In particular, we have technical expertise in manufacturing/re-engineering vertical roller mills (VRM) components, including
- Classifier/separator blades
- Grit cone; top flanges for grit cone; wear protection covers for grit cone support pipes,
- VRM body liners
- Liner plates for raw mill gas chambers
- Nozzle ring driver plates & driver holder plates; nozzle ring scraper blades;
- Reject chamber wearing rings
- Outer bearing covers
- Hard faced nozzle ring guide pins
- Nozzle ring wear plate for guide pins
Our additional wear components for cement/concrete plants include:
- Lamella plates for apron conveyors in Hardox® 500 Tuff.
- Grizzly baskets and bars in Hardox® 500.
- Horizontal shaft mixers: liners in Hardox 500® Tuff.
- Chutes and hopper liners in Hardox® 600.
- Planetary concrete mixers: sides and bottom plates, blades, and scrapers in Duroxite® 100.
- Twin shaft drum concrete mixers: Liners in Duroxite® 100.
- Screw conveyors in Hardox® 450
Waste management/recycling
Waste management and recycling requires compacting and/or shredding items that were designed to resist their destruction. The ingenious machines made to repurpose waste have, understandably, numerous parts that are vulnerable to impact and abrasive wear. Let us help extend the life of your:
- Recycling shredders, using wearparts in Hardox® 500 and Hardox® 600
- Crusher liners
- Compactor liners
- Tromel screens
- Hammer mills
- Screen drums
- Shear shredders
- Cyclones
- Chute and hoppers
- Scrap balers
Refurbished refuse (garbage) compactor, tailgate and body made from 4mm Hardox® HiAce wear plate for protection against abrasive and acidic loads.
Steel and aluminum mills
We offer wear upgrades for liner plates used on conveyors, feeders, chutes, and cones, as well as other wear components found in steel and aluminum mills. And “hot” applications can benefit from the use of our Hardox® HiTemp wear plate.
With Hardox® HiTemp wear plate, mills have a cost-efficient solution for wear resistance at high temperatures in the 300° to 500°C range.
Dredging
Hardox® Pipes and Duroxite® Pipes provide longer service life for the dredging of harbors, canals, or island-building applications.
