AbrasaPlate®-X is a lightweight, self-protecting weld overlay wear plate purpose-built for high-impact and sliding abrasion applications. Constructed with a mild steel backing and a chrome carbide weld overlay, it features a distinctive 3mm-thick hardfaced cross hatch pattern that allows bulk material to fill the surface depressions, creating a self-protecting layer that extends wear life while keeping the plate lighter than solid hardfaced alternatives.

• Self-protecting cross hatch surface — the raised hardfacing pattern allows bulk solids to pack into the depressions, so the material being handled ends up protecting the plate itself
• Chrome carbide weld overlay — proven hardfacing composition for superior abrasion resistance
• Mild steel backing — provides structural strength while keeping overall weight down
• 3mm hardfaced pattern thickness — engineered specifically for high-impact wear zones
• Lighter weight than solid overlay plate — reduces structural load and can extend the wear life of supporting equipment, without compromising protection
• Outstanding impact resistance — designed for applications where sliding abrasion is combined with heavy impact, not just steady wear

AbrasaPlate®-X is suited to high-impact wear zones including:

• Chute linings and transfer points in bulk material handling
• Hopper and bin linings subject to impact loading
• Crusher and screening equipment surfaces
• Any application combining sliding abrasion with repeated impact, where standard flat overlay plate wears too quickly

What makes AbrasaPlate®-X different from standard AbrasaPlate®?
AbrasaPlate®-X uses a 3mm cross hatch hardfacing pattern rather than a solid overlay, which is lighter in weight and allows bulk material to pack into the surface, creating a self-protecting wear layer ideal for high-impact conditions.

What is AbrasaPlate®-X made from?
It's built with a mild steel backing plate and a chrome carbide weld overlay applied in a cross hatch pattern.

Why does the cross hatch pattern improve wear life?
The raised pattern creates depressions that fill with the bulk material being handled. That packed material then absorbs impact and abrasion in place of the plate surface, reducing direct wear on the hardfacing itself.

Is AbrasaPlate®-X suitable for impact applications, sliding abrasion, or both?
Both — it's specifically engineered for applications combining sliding abrasion with impact loading, where a smooth solid overlay plate would wear or crack more quickly.
