Custom Chromium Carbide Wear Plate Fabrication
Engineered for the World’s Harshest Industrial Environments
Standard steel doesn’t stand a chance against extreme abrasion and high-impact stress. Our custom chromium carbide (CCO) wear plate fabrication services provide your equipment with a literal suit of armor, extending service life by up to 10x compared to mild steel.

Why Choose Our Custom CCO Fabrication?
In the B2B world, downtime is the enemy. We don’t just sell plates; we engineer solutions that keep your operations running. Our fabrication process ensures that every plate is tailored to your specific machinery geometry.
- Superior Hardness: Our plates typically reach 58-62 HRC, providing a dense primary chromium carbide concentration.
- Precision Fabrication: We utilize CNC plasma and waterjet cutting to ensure tight tolerances for easy bolt-on or weld-in installation.
- Custom Forming: Unlike brittle alternatives, our fabrication process allows for rolling and forming to fit chutes, hoppers, and fan blades.
- Metallurgical Integrity: We manage heat-affected zones (HAZ) during welding to prevent premature cracking or delamination.

Applications & Industries
Our custom-fabricated wear plates are the industry standard for sectors where “tough” isn’t enough:
- Mining & Quarrying: Chute liners, truck bed liners, and crusher hoppers.
- Cement & Concrete: Cyclones, fan housings, and mixer liners.
- Power Generation: Coal pulverizer components and ash handling systems.
- Steel Production: Sinter plant components and coke guide plates.
Expert Insight: “Choosing the right thickness ratio between the base metal and the carbide overlay is critical. For high-impact areas, a thicker base plate provides necessary structural support, while for pure sliding abrasion, a thinner base with a thick overlay maximizes ROI.”
Our Fabrication Process: From Drawing to Delivery
- Consultation: We review your wear patterns and CAD drawings.
- Material Selection: Choosing the specific CCO grade for your temperature and impact requirements.
- Precision Cutting: CNC processing to your exact specs.
- Finishing: Adding mounting hardware, studs, or specialized beveling.
- Quality Control: Ultrasonic testing and hardness verification before shipping.
