Why Cast-In-Carbide is one of a kind

Cast-In-Carbide is a revolutionary wear material in the rock processing industry. Among its exceptional properties, it offers extremely high wear resistance, along with superior impact and abrasion resilience.

This results in longer wear life, contributing to the lowest total cost of ownership (TCO) among wear parts on the market.

Additionally, Cast-In-Carbide supports safety, environmental, and sustainability goals.

A new category of wear material

The cast-in-carbide wear material, developed and pioneered by Sandvik, is unique in combining the distinct mechanical properties of its two component materials: nodular iron as the base material incorporating layered cemented carbides.

Highest wear resistance and superior impact and abrasion resilience

Cast-In-Carbide is unique because it combines the strengths of both materials – nodular iron and cemented carbide – in a single piece, making it an unparalleled wear material for protecting rock processing equipment and material handling machinery.

Longer wear life and lowest total cost of ownership

Cast-In-Carbide can deliver significant wear life increases for material handling structures and equipment.

Safety, environmental and sustainability advantages

Reduced downtime and less frequent replacement of wear parts means that the risk of employee exposure to hazards during maintenance shutdowns is decreased, improving overall workplace safety.
