Introduction
In high-impact industrial environments, standard mild steel isn’t enough. Whether you are operating a cement kiln in Punjab or a mining site in Balochistan, equipment downtime due to abrasive wear is a profit killer. At Welding Solution, we introduce our premium range of Chromium Carbide Overlay (CCO) Plates—engineered to provide the ultimate defense against extreme abrasion.
Technical Excellence: What Makes Our CCO Plate Different?
The performance of a wear plate isn’t just about thickness; it’s about the microstructure. Our plates feature a high-density concentration of primary chromium carbides, ensuring your machinery lasts up to 10x longer than standard hardened steel.

Fabrication & Precision Services
Unlike through-hardened plates which can be brittle, our bimetallic plates offer a tough, weldable substrate with a diamond-hard surface. This allows for complex fabrication without compromising the integrity of the material.
- Precision Plasma Profiling: We provide clean, accurate cuts for complex geometries.
- Custom Bending & Rolling: Create pipes, cones, and liners for chutes and hoppers.
- Mounting Options: Countersunk holes, threaded inserts, and plug-welding capabilities.
Pro Tip: Because the base plate of our CCO range is weldable steel (like St 37-2), you can easily attach flanges and brackets using standard welding techniques—saving you time on-site.
Applications Across Pakistan’s Key Industries
- Cement Industry: Chute liners, fan blades, and separator bodies.
- Power Generation: Coal handling systems and ash ducting.
- Mining & Quarrying: Crusher liners, bucket lips, and screen plates.
- Sugar Mills: Cane knives, shredder parts, and conveyor liners.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
1. Why choose CCO Plate over AR400 or AR500 steel?
AR400 is through-hardened steel, which is great for impact but fails quickly under high-sliding abrasion. Chromium Carbide Overlay plates provide a much higher surface hardness (63 HRC), offering superior longevity in sliding-wear applications.
2. Can Chromium Carbide plates be welded?
Yes. You weld the base plate (the mild steel side) using standard E7018 or similar electrodes. For joining the overlay side, a hardfacing electrode is recommended to maintain wear continuity.
3. Does Welding Solution provide quality certification?
Absolutely. Every plate delivered by Welding Solution comes with a Quality Test Certificate (QTC) verifying the hardness and chemical composition.
