Engineered for extreme abrasion and high-impact industrial operations across Ghana, from Tema to Takoradi and the Western Mining Belt.
Industrial wear is one of the most critical causes of unscheduled downtime and capital expenditure in West Africa's heavy sectors. In Ghana—renowned for its resource-rich landscape across gold mining, bauxite extraction, manganese mining, and regional cement production—equipment components are exposed to aggressive abrasive and impact stresses. As a premium manufacturer of hardfacing materials and bimetallic wear plates, Tangshan Runxing Machinery Co., Ltd. delivers advanced metallurgical technologies that extend the operational lifespan of heavy equipment from days to years.
Ghana’s mining sector, particularly in gold-rich regions like Tarkwa, Obuasi, and Chirano, processes highly abrasive ores. The presence of silica-rich quartz and hard rock formations creates a severe three-body abrasion environment. Excavator bucket lips, conveyor chutes, primary crushers, and sag mill components undergo rapid surface degradation.
Similarly, in the cement plants situated near Tema and Takoradi, vertical roller mills (VRM) grind raw materials and highly abrasive clinker under extreme pressure. Standard structural steels cannot withstand these conditions. Hardfacing using high-chromium flux-cored wires and the installation of Chromium Carbide Overlay (CCO) wear plates have become the benchmark standard for preventive maintenance in these installations.
Traditional hardening processes often compromise ductility, leading to catastrophic fracturing under heavy impact. Modern material science overcomes this through hypereutectic chromium iron alloys. When applied via flux-cored open-arc or submerged-arc welding, these alloys deposit a high density of primary chromium carbides ($Cr_7C_3$) within a tough, resilient martensitic-austenitic matrix.
Procuring wear-resistant materials in West Africa demands reliable logistics and expert engineering compliance. All global export logistics from Runxing Machinery are managed through our authorized trading entity, Hebei Yuwan International Trade Co., Ltd. This structure guarantees seamless shipping documentation, customs clearance, and direct delivery to Ghana's maritime gateways in Tema and Takoradi. We collaborate closely with local engineering teams to supply custom-tailored wear liners based on specific CAD data, ensuring drop-in installations during planned maintenance shutdowns.
As global industries move toward automation and reduced carbon footprints, Runxing Machinery is pioneering automated welding systems and environmentally optimized wire formulations. Our technological roadmap includes:

We highly recommend our self-shielded flux-cored welding wire (for hardfacing). Unlike gas-metal arc welding (GMAW), self-shielded wire relies on built-in slag formers and gas generators in the core. This makes it impervious to wind and air currents, preventing weld porosity when welding outdoors at mining sites in Tarkwa or Obuasi.
Standard tempered plates (400/500 HB) rely on martensitic hardness which wears down quickly under heavy mineral sliding. Our Bimetallic Chromium Carbide Overlay (CCO) plates consist of a mild steel base plate with a hypereutectic overlay rich in primary chromium carbides. CCO plates last 4 to 6 times longer than standard 500 HB plates under high abrasion conditions, significantly reducing replacement cycles.
All export logistics are handled by our dedicated trade partner, Hebei Yuwan International Trade Co., Ltd. Shipping lead times from China to Ghana ports (Tema or Takoradi) typically average between 35 and 45 days. We ensure all custom codes (HS Codes), packaging, and certifications match Ghana Standards Authority (GSA) guidelines to prevent customs delays.
Yes, but it requires a buffer layer. Manganese steels are susceptible to embrittlement if welded incorrectly. We recommend placing a buffer layer using a high-manganese or modified austenitic stainless steel wire before applying the high-chromium carbide overlay. This prevents cracking and delamination under impact.
Our hardfacing materials and bimetallic plates are produced in accordance with ISO 9001 quality standards and correspond directly to the **DIN 8555** standard (e.g., DIN 8555 MSG 10-GF-60-G for our high-chromium wear plates). This ensures reliability for international operations operating in West Africa.
