Typical Kwik-Lok II applications include machine buckets, processing plants and haul truck beds. Kwik-Lok II wear protection is ideal for virtually any industrial wear situation. Examples include dozer arms, scraper bowl bottoms and log loading forks.

• Versatile sizing allows protection for hot spots or entire wear surfaces
• One-piece lock allows quick and easy installation and removal
• No large wear plates to handle, no arc splatter, or welding fumes to replace wear runners
• Lightweight wear runners are easier and safer to handle
• ESCO alloy 12S cast runners provide longer wear life and durability
• Select size runners are available in ESCO alloy 35S for even longer wear life in low impact applications
• Most Kwik-Lok II runners are reversible for extended life in applications with uneven wear
• Easy to change runners allow wear protection maintenance to be done along with standard machine maintenance

The original Kwik-Lok wear protection is especially ideal for hot slag and underwater dredging.

It is a semi-mechanical system that utilizes a weld-on stop block to hold the runner in place.

• ESCO alloy 12S runners can last up to five times longer than plate steel
• ESCO alloy 35S runners are available in select sizes for even longer wear life in low impact applications
• Runners are ready to use as delivered – no material prep or special handling
• Longer wear life and less maintenance increases machine uptime

Infinity bimetallic bolt-on and custom wear plates combine a mild steel jacket with a 27% chrome ni-hard alloy core for extreme wear conditions.

Infinity wear plates provide surface abrasion protection for a wide variety of applications on both flat and curved surfaces.

• Ideal for severe wear areas in hoppers and conveyor chutes
• Longer wear life and less maintenance
• May be used on draglines, shovel dippers, face shovels, excavators, loaders, truck beds and dozer arms

Infinity™ Buttons, Block, Bars, and Runners

ESCO Infinity wear buttons, blocks, bars and runners are a chrome white iron (CWI) casting on a mild steel backing plate. The CWI has a minimum hardness of 700 Brinell, and the mild steel backing allows easy attachments with minimal welding. There are a variety of shapes and sizes to protect any high wear area on mobile or stationary machinery.

Some of the many applications are buckets for shovels, draglines, loaders and excavators, and conveyor chutes liners, grizzly screens, crusher liners or any other equipment exposed to abrasive wear.

Infinity™ Wear Tiles

In addition to buttons, blocks, bars and runners, ESCO also offers Infinity wear tiles.

Standard Wear Tiles
Infinity wear tiles may be custom ordered to a size that matches a specific application and are designed for high abrasion with low impact. Standard sizes range from 203mm/8.00in. to 610mm/24.00in. long by 152mm/6.00in. to 203mm/8.00in. wide. Other sizes may be available on request. ESCO wear tiles are ideal to cover larger surfaces on recycling shredders and material chutes.

Jacketed Wear Tiles
Infinity jacketed wear tiles are available in various custom sizes. Excellent for high abrasion protection, thejacket design allows the product to be used in moderate impact applications on shredders and material chutes.

CWI Bolt-on Cast Wear Blocks
ESCO bolt-on cast wear blocks are an option for protection in severe wear areas in hoppers and conveyor chutes. Cast in solid 700 Brinell chrome white iron, the bolt-on design eliminates welding and makes replacement quick and easy.

Wear is one of the biggest challenges facing recycling operations today. The application at each operation is unique so ESCO offers a variety of options to protect valuable equipment.

ESCOALLOY™ plate is a premium AR product available in 400 or 500 grades that is quenched and tempered to handle extreme wear, with optimum resistance to gouging abrasion under severe impact.

ESCOALLOY plate has exceptional toughness, ductility, formability and hardness over T1 type abrasion grades. It can be sheared, plasma cut and welded using conventional methods, and is a great choice for recycling mill applications.

Infinity™ chromium carbide overlay plate is an alternative for extreme abrasion applications, and is an excellent choice for severe wear protection as liners for recycling shredders, chutes, conveyors, and other industrial applications.

ESCOALLOY™ 400		ESCOALLOY 500
ESCOALLOY 400 through-hardened plate is available in 3/16” through 4” thickness. Typical hardness is 360-444 BHN, and the typical toughness is 20 ft.-lbs. in transverse direction. ESCOALLOY 400 is very formable and has high wear resistance, excellent toughness and weldability.		ESCOALLOY 500 through-hardened plate is available in 1/8” through 4” thickness. Typical hardness is 477-555 BHN, and the typical toughness is 18 ft.-lbs. in transverse direction. ESCOALLOY 500 is formable in cold condition and has superior wear resistance for extreme abrasion, very good toughness and weldability.

Typical Applications: truck bed liners crusher liners bucket liners conveyor liners dozer blade liners fabricated ripper shanks chute liners

ESCOALLOY Wear liners
ESCO fabricates custom liner packages to customer specifications, with a selection of package styles for various wear needs. The liner styles below are available for dragline buckets, truck boxes, dozers, wheel loaders, excavators, face shovels and rail cars.

• Tumble Bar style liners cause material to tumble instead of slide, which reduces wear during material discharge. Tumble bars are made from ESCOALLOY™ 400 or 500 premium wear plate in thicknesses of 1/2" to 1-1/4", depending upon application.
• Flat / Formed liners made of premium grade ESCOALLOY 400 or 500 wear plate, or chromiumcarbide overlay plate. These are ideal for extreme abrasion and high impact applications.
• Waffle Style liners are typically 40% lighter than solid plate liners, with minimal wear life change. Liners are generally 1/2" to 1-1/4" thick ESCOALLOY 400 or 500 plate and are designed for lighter weight in high abrasion impact applications.

Infinity™ Chromium Carbide Overlay Plate
ESCO’s Infinity Chromium Carbide Overlay wear protection is ideal in extreme abrasion and medium impact applications. ESCO overlay plate offers a minimum of 573 Brinell hardness. Infinity overlay plate is formable and can be ordered in custom designed kits to fit a wide variety of surface configurations.

Infinity Chromium Carbide products are the most cost-effective way to protect equipment in severe wear conditions.

• mining
• dredging
• construction
• cement plants
• coal preparation
• conveyor systems

ESCO offers a wide variety of E3 Overlay Product for application to metal components to increase wear life and improve productivity.

To maximize performance, the overlay material is applied based on the specific field application. Overlay material can be simply applied tocomponent surfaces for protection from abrasive wear, or applied in a specific pattern that not only increases wear life, but also improves the performance of the product as it wears. In addition, for certain applications, ESCO designs components specifically for best use of E3 overlay material.

E3 Chrome White Iron Overlay
ESCO Chrome White Iron Overlay material consists of microscopic chromium rich carbides embedded in an iron-base matrix. Overlay of this type is used to significantly increase abrasion resistance in low impact applications.

E3X Embedded Tungsten Carbide Overlay
ESCO Embedded Tungsten Carbide consists of macroscopic pieces of tungsten carbide material dispersed in a tough steel matrix. This type is for medium to heavy impactapplications.

E3CX Embedded Tungsten Carbide Overlay
ESCO Embedded Tungsten Carbide consists of macroscopic pieces of tungsten carbide material dispersed in a chrome white iron matrix. Primary use is low impact, high abrasion applications.

E3XP Tungsten Carbide/Nickel PTA Overlay
ESCO Tungsten Carbide/Nickel overlay consist of fine tungsten carbide particles dispersed in a nickel alloy matrix. This is applied using state-of-theart Plasma Transfer Arc (PTA) welding equipment. In many applications, this type of overlay provides abrasion resistance unobtainable with any other type of overlay. The hardness of the tungsten carbide particles combined with their tight spacing result in an overlay that is ideal for low impact applications with extreme fine particle abrasion.

• Increased wear life for minimal downtime
• Minimize the need for part replacement for lower maintenance costs
• Improved machine performance for increased productivity
• Increases the overall operating life of major equipment investments
