Wear plates are a type of steel product used in various industrial applications to protect surfaces from wear, abrasion, and impact. They are made from high-strength steel alloys and are typically coated with a layer of hard material, such as tungsten carbide or chromium carbide, to enhance their wear resistance. Wear plates come in various shapes and sizes, including square, rectangular, and circular, and can be customized to suit specific application requirements.
They are commonly used in mining, construction, and manufacturing industries and can be installed by welding or bolting onto the surface that needs protection. Proper selection and installation of wear plates are essential for ensuring maximum protection and prolonging the lifespan of equipment and machinery.
