The Alchemy of Metal
Take an everyday mild steel, add a measure of manganese and molybdenum, a trace of titanium and chromium, balance it with carbon …and something new is born. A high-strength wear-resistant metal with a special characteristic: it gets even harder with use. Making it ideal for crusher jaws and other applications in the demanding quarrying industry. Uniquely formulated by A&G Price, we call it ‘Crushalloy’.
It is just one more proof of our commitment to delivering to our clients the world’s finest solutions in metal.
