MetalKeen manufactures custom bronze wear plates using ZCuSn5Zn5Pb5 tin bronze, a proven copper alloy widely used in high-load, low-speed sliding applications requiring excellent wear resistance and long service life.
Bronze wear plates act as sacrificial wear surfaces, protecting expensive machine frames, guide rails, and moving components from friction and abrasion. Compared with steel-on-steel contact, bronze provides lower friction, improved seizure resistance, and better compatibility with lubricated sliding systems.
Using advanced CNC milling, drilling, grinding, and precision inspection, MetalKeen manufactures wear plates according to customer drawings with customized dimensions, lubrication grooves, countersunk holes, graphite inserts, and surface finishes.
Our bronze wear plates are widely used in paper machinery, mining equipment, steel mills, hydraulic presses, construction machinery, injection molding machines, and other heavy industrial equipment.
A bronze wear plate is a flat sliding component designed to reduce friction and absorb wear between moving metal parts. Instead of allowing expensive structural components to wear, the bronze plate functions as a replaceable wear surface, extending equipment life and reducing maintenance costs.
Our bronze wear plates are widely used in:
Paper Machines
Pulp Processing Equipment
Steel Mills
Mining Machinery
Hydraulic Presses
Construction Equipment
Guide Rail Systems
Conveyor Equipment
Heavy Industrial Machinery
Mold & Die Equipment
