“The Right Tools. The Right Handling. The Right Results.”

Extending Component Life Starts with the Right Handling Equipment
In mining, equipment downtime is expensive — and the secret to extending component life goes beyond quality parts. It’s about how those parts are handled during removal, rebuild, and reinstallation.
At B & D Manufacturing Ltd., we’ve seen firsthand how improper handling can shorten the lifespan of critical components. That’s why we developed the Evolution Jack and Multi Handler — purpose-built solutions that protect your investment.
🔹 The Evolution Jack delivers stable, controlled lifting that reduces stress and minimizes the risk of damage during heavy lifts.
🔹 The Multi Handler ensures precise maneuvering of large components, preventing misalignment and reducing technician strain.
Both tools are designed to improve safety, reduce downtime, and keep parts performing at their best — longer. When your components last, so does your productivity.
Protecting equipment life isn’t just about engineering strong parts. It’s about handling them with the care they deserve.
B & D Manufacturing Ltd. — where smarter handling means longer-lasting performance.

🌍 Why Your Wheel Chock Choice Matters for Safety and Sustainability

In 2025, wheel chocks are no longer “just safety gear”—they’re mission-critical for mining, oil & gas, and heavy equipment operations. The real choice comes down to aluminum vs. polyurethane/rubber.
🔹 Aluminum delivers unmatched strength, thermal stability, and recyclability, making it the go-to for ultra-heavy mining and extreme climates.
🔹 Polyurethane/Rubber offers lighter weight, non-conductive safety, and tire-friendly performance—ideal for refineries, drilling, and frequent repositioning.
Both meet MSHA/OSHA standards, but application drives value: aluminum for extreme loads, PU/rubber for versatility and ergonomics. Looking ahead, expect hybrid materials, smart sensor-enabled chocks, and stronger sustainability mandates.
The future of wheel chocks lies in choosing the right material for the right operation
