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.

Hardness Ratings

Overlay Thickness BOROTUFFâ„¢ (HRC) CHROMOTUFFâ„¢ (HRC)
4.0 mm 57 – 61 57 – 60
8.0 mm 58 – 62 59 – 63

Microstructure Analysis

Phase Type BOROTUFFâ„¢ (%) CHROMOTUFFâ„¢ (%)
Primary Chromium Carbides 35 – 40 40 – 44
Eutectic Carbides 20 – 28 22 – 26
Martensite 14 – 20 10 – 14
Austenite 12 – 16 20 – 25

Both plates exhibit a highly wear-resistant microstructure combining carbides in an austenitic/martensitic matrix.
