Spokane Industries
The most common solution to impact crusher wear parts is high-chrome white iron, as it offers wear resistance to low-impact and sliding abrasion. However, it is possible to increase this wear resistance further using composite technology, where a material is combined with another to yield improved combined properties. Spokane Industries features a full line of wear-resistant parts manufactured using Si-Tec, its patented ceramic composite technology for HSI and VSI crushers. Si-Tec Extraordinary Wear-Resistant Parts quite often provide more than twice the wear life of standard parts, the company says. www.SpokaneIndustries.com/steel-foundry-impact-crusher.php Photo: Spokane Industries Keep Reading
