HARD-FACING OPTIONS

Even though high quality abrasion resistant Swedish steel is used in the manufacture of all BorePro plowing blades, they eventually wear out from the abrasive action of plowing. There are however, two optional hard-facing processes that can retard abrasion and extend blade service life. We can apply one or both optional processes to your new plowing blade.

OPTION 1 (HF-1)

Using special hard-facing welding rods, we apply a basket-weave pattern of weld to the bottom half of the plowing blade’s sides. The basket-weave pattern is one of the best low- cost methods available that is used to extend blade service life. In addition to the hard-facing material itself protecting the blade, the basket-weave pattern captures and holds soil to the sides of the blade for additional protection from abrasion

When selecting this hard-facing option, add 20% to the list price and the suffix “HF-1” to the blade
model number (i.e. DW30-12C HF-1).

OPTION 2 (HF-2)

Using a special Microflo Alloy Spraying Process, we apply an abrasive resistant coating of nickel, chrome and super hard tungsten carbide to the lower half of the plowing blade’s knife-edge (where most wear occurs). This hard- face coating will not peel or scale and will double the service life of the knife-edge.

When selecting this hard-facing option, add 20% to the list price and the suffix “HF-2” to the blade
model number (i.e. DW30-12C HF-2).

"COMBINATION" OPTION 3 (HF-3)

When customers purchase hard-facing Options 1 & 2 together on the same plowing blade (HF-3), they save 25%.

When selecting Option 3 (HF-3), add 30% to the list price and the suffix "HF-3 to the blade model number (i.e., DW30-12C HF-3)
