Dust, dirt, and debris attacking bearings and seals in crushers and conveyors
Heavy Shock Loads
Impact forces from rock crushers and screening equipment destroying components
Outdoor Exposure
Weather, moisture, and temperature extremes accelerating wear
Abrasive Materials
Sand, aggregate, and recycled materials causing rapid component degradation
Proven Heavy-Duty Solutions
Sealed Heavy-Duty Bearings
Taconite seals and enhanced lubrication for contaminated environments
Impact-Resistant Components
Reinforced housings and shock-absorbing designs for crusher applications
Corrosion Protection
Stainless steel and coated components for outdoor installations
Site-Based Stock Programs
Critical spare parts held on-site for immediate replacement
Aggregate Quarry: 3x Bearing Life Extension
A Yorkshire quarry was replacing crusher bearings every 6 months due to contamination. We specified sealed spherical roller bearings with taconite seals, extending service life to 18+ months and reducing maintenance costs by 60%.
