Chromium Carbide Overlay Plates (CCO Plates)
Premium Wear Plate Solutions by Leomet Alloys
Our Brands: BOROTUFFâ„¢ | CHROMOTUFFâ„¢
Product Overview
BOROTUFFâ„¢ and CHROMOTUFFâ„¢ are advanced composite wear plates developed
using German technology by Leomet Alloys. These Chromium Carbide Overlay (CCO)
Plates are engineered for superior performance in environments experiencing high
abrasion, erosion, and moderate impact.
They are ideal for industrial sectors such as cement, mining, power, steel, recycling, and
more — wherever abrasion resistance, durability, and reliability are required.
