Three precision BCL KROME grades delivering 400–580 BHN hardness — engineered for superior wear resistance in crushers, mills, batch mix & hotmix plants, and VSI machines across the most demanding processing environments.
BCL high chrome castings are manufactured using high-chromium white iron alloys, which form a hard chromium carbide matrix that delivers outstanding abrasion resistance compared to conventional alloys.
Available in three BCL KROME grades — KROME-11, KROME-25, and KROME-7 — each grade is optimised for specific wear environments, from high-impact crusher applications to the abrasive conditions inside ball mills and hotmix plant mixers.
Every casting is dimensionally verified and metallurgically tested before despatch, ensuring guaranteed fit and consistent performance throughout its service life.
Three BCL KROME grades covering the full range of high chrome casting applications — from moderate impact to extreme abrasion environments.
| Grade | Hardness (BHN) | Typical Applications | Characteristics |
|---|---|---|---|
| BCL KROME-11 | 400 – 550 BHN | Crusher liners, back plates, blow bars, batch mix plant paddles | Balanced hardness and toughness for medium-impact wear environments |
| BCL KROME-25 | 400 – 580 BHN | Crusher wear plates, hotmix plant spares, VSI machine spares | Highest chromium content — maximum wear resistance for severe abrasion |
| BCL KROME-7 | 450 – 500 BHN | Mill liners, diaphragm plates, distribution plant liners | Consistent mid-range hardness with excellent dimensional stability |
