Fall is a good time to take another look at equipment that has been working hard all year. Review high-wear areas before winter and identify components that may need attention during upcoming maintenance windows.

Planning ahead gives your team more options.

Since 1996, WearCon has helped industrial operations take on tough wear and abrasion challenges.

Our team works to extend equipment life and reduce costly downtime with wear-resistant products and solutions built around each application. We support customers with technical expertise, custom engineering, field installation and ongoing service.

Nearly three decades later, the goal remains the same: help our customers keep equipment running longer and operations moving forward.

Built for severe impact and designed to get tougher with use.

WearCon WC14M™ RingHammers are cast from a 14% manganese alloy that starts at 350 BHN and work hardens up to 500 BHN during use.

They can replace OEM hammers or be custom made to fit specific mill and production requirements, all with no special installation requirements.

When the application hits hard, WC14M™ is built to hit back.

Replacing the same worn component again and again isn't much of a solution. Before the next replacement, ask a few questions about what's actually happening in the application. Save these five questions for the next time recurring wear shows up.

Every WearCon solution starts with people who understand industrial wear and what it costs when equipment goes down. Behind every product is a team focused on helping customers keep equipment protected and production moving.

When material needs to keep moving, the right liner can make all the difference.

WearCon offers UHMW and Urethane solutions built to stand up to demanding wear conditions. UHMW is lightweight with a low coefficient of friction, making it well suited for wet, sticky and corrosive materials. WearCon Urethane provides superior abrasion resistance with High-Rebound™ properties for sliding and impingement abrasion.

Both can be used across applications like chutes and hoppers to help protect equipment and keep material flowing.

Some wear solutions prove themselves where it matters most: in the application.

In a controlled comparison highlighted in this WearCon success story, 1-inch AR500 plate lasted 48 weeks. The same thickness of WC700Plus™ Chrome Carbide Overlay Wear Plate lasted 151 weeks.

WC700Plus™ combines a hard chrome carbide surface with a mild steel backing to provide abrasion resistance while standing up to impact conditions. That versatility makes it an effective option across demanding applications in cement plants and quarries.

Tough wear problems don't always have an off-the-shelf answer.

WearCon’s consulting services bring experienced Technical Designers, Project Managers and Wear Specialists into the process to help identify the problem and develop a solution around your operation.

Our team can provide on-site evaluations and custom design support while helping address preventative wear, repairs and replacement. The goal is to help your equipment perform longer while keeping downtime and operating costs under control.

When abrasion and impact are both part of the problem, BarricAid™ is built to handle both.

BarricAid™ panels combine WC90™ High Alumina Ceramic HexTiles with resilient rubber and a mild steel base. The ceramic surface provides exceptional wear resistance while the rubber helps absorb impact forces and reduce vibration.

For applications like chutes, bins and transfer points, BarricAid™ provides durable protection where equipment takes a beating.
