Why Choose Our Weld-On Wear Plates?
In the B2B world, downtime is the enemy. Our plates are designed for rapid installation and extreme longevity.
- Hardness Where It Counts: Available in AR400, AR500, and Chromium Carbide Overlay (CCO) to match your specific impact and abrasion needs.
- Precision Fit: Pre-beveled edges available for immediate, deep-penetration welding—saving your shop hours in prep time.
- Impact Resilience: Unlike brittle alternatives, our steel maintains structural integrity even in sub-zero operating temperatures.
- Custom Geometry: We stock standard strips (4″, 6″, 8″ widths) and offer CNC-plasma cutting for custom bucket profiles.

Applications & Compatibility
Our wear plates are “brand agnostic” and designed to be field-welded onto any heavy-duty attachment:
- Excavator Buckets: Side cutters, heel shrouds, and floor liners.
- Wheel Loaders: Base edge protection and spill guards.
- Dozer Blades: End bits and skin reinforcement.
- Industrial Shredders: Liner plates for high-wear zones.
Installation & Maintenance Benefits
Pro Tip: By implementing a strategic “wear pattern” layout, you can direct material flow away from critical structural welds, preventing premature bucket failure.
- Reduce Repair Costs: Replacing a wear strip is 80% cheaper than rebuilding a bucket floor.
- Ease of Replacement: Our weld-bead friendly chemistry ensures that when the plate finally wears down, it can be torched off and replaced without damaging the host metal.
- Increased Payload Efficiency: Low-profile designs ensure protection without adding unnecessary weight that bogs down your cycle times.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I choose between AR400 and AR500?
AR400 is ideal for high-impact environments where toughness is key. AR500 offers superior sliding abrasion resistance but is slightly more brittle. Our engineers can help you choose based on your specific job site material.
Do you offer volume discounts for fleet maintenance?
Yes. We specialize in B2B supply chains and offer tiered pricing for fleet managers and OEM repair shops.
