In the dynamic, demanding world of aggregate and mining, there’s zero time for unplanned equipment downtime. When it hits, production halts. Profitability crashes. And jobs can be at stake.
To help minimize the ripple effects of downtime, on-site managers and engineers alike count on crusher backing solutions from Copps. For over 45 years we’ve established a proven track record – as well as a trust – that once our solutions disappear into critical parts of a machine, they do what we promise: help keep operations online, on time, and equipment operating efficiently for longer. For anything that needs crushing, under the most extreme conditions, anywhere in the world. And it’s with the world in mind that we develop our products. Not just for the job at hand today, but with long-term implications in mind for your people and the environment as well. In fact, Copps is the only company to date to offer non-corrosive versions of standard and high-performance crusher backing options. We don’t just lead this market in environmentally conscious solutions – we are the market.
Raising the Bar for Your Toughest Jobs
While some well-known, established companies choose only to offer one type of backing product, our experience, expertise, and chemistry tell us that different materials and machines require different solutions.
That’s why we formulate and offer both standard as well as premier, high-performance versions of our products, designed specifically for your toughest jobs. All as we continue to lead the way in our commitment to the environment by offering eco-conscious versions of our crusher backing solutions.
Standard Crusher Backing
Recommended for use in most (including severe) crushing applications. With uniform consistency, pourability, and cured toughness it offers elevated compressive strength, service temperature, and impact resistance. Does not contain VOCs, butyl glycidyl ether (BGE), or nonylphenol.
Non-Corrosive Standard Backing
A DOT non-corrosive version of our standard backing formulated to address environmental, workplace safety, and shipping concerns. It provides the same support or “backup” for manganese steel or alloy wear parts in cone and gyratory crushers as our traditional material, and is butyl glycidyl ether (BGE), VOC, and nonyl phenol free!
XP-2000 High-Performance Backing
The ultimate backing material for the toughest, most demanding crushing applications. Uniquely designed with extreme impact resistance, very low water absorption, and the ability to withstand hard or abrasive material and high-temperature crushing environments. Does not contain VOCs, butyl glycidyl ether (BGE), or nonylphenol.
XP-3000 High-Performance Non-Corrosive Backing
The DOT non-corrosive version of our current ultimate backing material. Designed to engage the most challenging crushing conditions: gyrators, primary crushing, wet crushing, and hard or excessively abrasive media. Does not contain BGE, VOCs, or nonylphenol. It offers exceptional heat, water, and shrinkage resistance.
What Crusher Backing Compounds Do For You
The stresses your equipment faces day in and day out, hour after hour, are immense. Our crusher backing compounds help protect it all from unnecessary damage and assist in long-term wear by filling the open cavities behind wear parts and supporting crushing wear surfaces. In doing so, our compounds help to minimize the effect of friction, vibration, and impact on the machinery during crushing operations. They offer a range of benefits for mining and aggregate operations including:
Extended Machinery Life
Applying crusher backing compounds on an appropriate maintenance schedule substantially extends the life of equipment and related components, minimizes downtime, and lowers replacement part costs.
Low Shrinkage
Using a properly formulated crusher backing compound engineered to manage shrinkage during the hardening or curing stage greatly reduces the risk of voids and misalignments between liners.
High Strength
Our compounds offer a higher level of compressive strength, a broader array of service temperatures, and higher impact and vibration resistance to improve component and machine efficiency and durability.
Gap Elimination
Eliminating wear liner gaps and smoothing alignment errors provides equipment with superior impact resistance compared to equipment not treated with a crusher backing compound.
Performance, Profitability, and More.
Across the US and around the world, mining companies today are coming under scrutiny. While keeping up performance and remaining profitable will always be job number one, mining leaders are being asked to do more than ever. Like enhancing commitments to the environment and making conscious efforts to improve workforce health and safety.
With the crusher backing solutions offered by Copps on-site and at the ready, you can do both.
