”Valkoisten valurautojen rakenteessa karbidit saavat aikaan hyvinkin korkeat mikro- ja makrokovuudet (500 – 1500 HV). Tämän takia kulumiskestävyys hankaavan kuorman tilanteissa on monilla tavoin erinomainen.”
”Kulumiskestävät valuraudat tarjoavat erinomaisen vaihtoehdon hankaavan kuormituksen alaisiin komponentteihin.”

Most popular uses
The Peirox™ wear plate is designed for demanding, abrasive conditions where material flow rapidly wears down surfaces. It is particularly suitable for applications where rock, ore or other abrasive materials come in contact with the plate. It is particularly useful in mining environments, but its performance capabilities also bring benefits in many other industrial processes.
Our wear plates have proven their reliability for decades, for example in mines in Northern Sweden.
Typical applications:
- Feed hoppers of crushers and conveyors
- Feed troughs and chutes
- Lifting buckets
- Other wear plates in abrasive processes
- Material handling systems of mining and enrichment plants
