Kwik-Lok Wear Protection

Kwik-Lok wear systems provide an effective wear solution for buckets used on mobile equipment. Runners have been successfully used to protect high wear areas on dragline, shovel dipper, face shovel, excavator, and loader buckets. They have also been used in truck beds, on dozer arms, and under log loading forks. Wear runners can be used most anywhere there is a need for long lasting, reliable, quick-change wear protection.

Stationary Equipment

Wear runners are particularly effective in crushing and processing plants where access, confined space, and lack of crane service make lightweight runners a safer, more cost effective solution. Runners have been successfully used to protect high wear areas under crushers, in chutes, feeders, transfer points, strike plates - all around the plant.

Semi-mechanical Kwik-Lok System

The original Kwik-Lok system was a semi-mechanical system that utilized a weld-on stop block to hold the runner in place. With the introduction of Kwik-Lok II wear protection, the original Kwik-Lok system continues to be used in selected applications. Runners are cast ESCO® alloy 12S, a typical 514 BHN steel, for long life and durability Alloy 12S runners can last up to five times longer than plate steel Alloy 35S runners are available in select sizes for even longer wear life in applications with low impact Runners are ready to use as delivered - no material prep or special uptime Weld on stops for retention

Hot Slag Semi-mechanical Kwik-Lok runners are ideally suited for fighting abrasion in hot slag. The weld-on stop block eliminates the use for rubber, while still giving you the benefits of ESCO alloy 12S wear protection. Underwater Dredge The semi-mechanical Kwik-Lok system is quicker to change than wear plate, lasts longer, and the weld-on stop block provides take-up each time a runner is changed. Crushing and Processing Plants Kwik-Lok wear protection is ideally suited for applications where gravity holds the runner on the base and there is no reverse load trying to push the runner off the base. In some applications th seeming-mechanical Kwik-Lok system becomes fully mechanical (no weld-on stop or lock is needed). In some applications, if a lock is no needed, a solid runner (no lock slot) can provide additional wear protection. Contact us today for more detailed application information.

Kwik Lok II Three-piece Wear Protection System

Base Permanently attached base with dovetails, securely holds wear runner in place. Runner Kwik-Lok II wear runners provide surface-abrasion protection for a wide variety of applications on both flat and curved surfaces. Lock One-piece lock device consisting of a steel and polymer laminate keeps the cast wear runner from backing off the dovetails.
