The Loadmaster HDP (Quarry) lip is an innovative lip designed to meet the specific needs of the small to mid-sized loading machines used in today’s aggregate operations. Constructed of a T1 plate lip and wing design, the Loadmaster lip system combines the ESCO Super V^® tooth system with Toplok^® fully mechanical lip and wing shrouds.

• Easy to change corner wear cap provides additional protection in high wear areas
• Flat bottom design with increased spade angle leaves a clean floor, reducing tire wear and damage
• Spade angle increases penetration and cycle time for increased production
• Tough T1 plate lip provides the best balance of abrasion resistance and structural reliability
• Super V^® tooth system provides increased wear life, better penetration, less breakage, and are easy to change-out
• Toplok^® shrouds attach to the lip without holes to reduce lip cracks or failure

• Tough T1 plate lips provide the highest quality lip material for balancing abrasion resistance with structural reliability
• Weld-on adapters are long-wearing, reducing maintenance costs (wear caps optional)
• Super V tooth system provides increased wear life, better penetration, easy change-out with less breakage
• Cast alloy corners move welds out of high stress areas for greater strength
• Spade angle increases penetration and cycle time
• Toplok shrouds, cast in tough ESCO alloy 12S, are designed to fit the lip without holes, reducing chances of lip cracking or failure

The Loadmaster II XDP is a high performance lip with all mechanical wearparts. The XDP features Toplok^® adapters, the revolutionary mechanical adapter system.

• Tough T1 plate lip for longer wear life combined with cast corner wings provides optimum balance of value and performance
• Lip profile helps keep a clean floor while enhancing penetration for improved machine production
• Comes standard with Super V tooth system to provide the most trouble-free operation with enhanced penetration
• Toplok shrouds provide lip and wing protection with quick change-out
• Toplok center and corner adapters complete the Loadmaster lip package for a superior low cost lip system

Mechanical Benefits

• Safer and easier to change adapters in the field
• Eliminates high wear bottom leg for longer adapter life
• Maximum adapter retention from the continuous take-up of the adapter lock
• Greater strength and a reliable lock that is quick and easy to remove
• Unique Toplok bosses allow one adapter to fit various ESCO and non ESCO lips
• Comes standard with Toplok shrouds and mining Super V^® teeth

• Cost-effective pricing
• Reliable, safer, and easier to use Super V tooth system
• Cost-effective lip protection with cast bolt-on shrouds
• Slim profile that improves penetration and lowers cycle times
• Reduced maintenance costs due to fast change-out and cleaner quarry floors

ESCO offers a complete line of weld-on base edges and replaceable cutting edges for every make and model of loader. Edges are precision punched and drilled to exacting standards using state of the art machinery to insure easy installation. Produced from high quality steels, ESCO loader edges set the standard for quality and value.

ESCO loader products are available in the following alloys:

• ForgeTemp^® Steel Plate – High carbon roll-forged steel, designed for highly abrasive, moderate impact conditions.
  
  
• MaxTemp^® Steel Plate – Heat treated through-hardened steel gives maximum protection against impact breakage in the toughest digging conditions without sacrificing wear life.
  
  
• Special Application MaxTemp Steel Plate (SAM ) – This heat treated alloy was developed specifically for heavy duty loader and excavator applications. Impact resistant, wear resistant and easy to weld, SAM is uniquely suited to handle the punishment large production machines dish out. SAM is available for weld in straight, spade and modified vee moldboards.
  
  
• Carbide Embedded Plate – Significantly extends wear life over conventional edges in moderate impact conditions. This product is produced by embedding carbide particles into a heat-treated base metal, bonding the metals together forming a unified steel with greatly enhanced wear properties. All ESCO carbide embedded products are fully warranted to provide cost-effective service in factory recommended applications. Carbide embedded plate is available for any ESCO heat-treated loader product. Carbide embedded products should not be used where surfacing marring and etching of conventional steel blades is prevalent.
