From Ice to Impact In mining operations, dozer undercarriage components are exposed to extreme impact, abrasion, and harsh ground conditions. Track shoes and ice lugs play a critical role in providing traction — especially in icy or winter conditions — but they wear quickly. A common challenge is that once the ice lugs wear down while the track pad remains in good condition, maintenance teams must weld new lugs to keep the machine running, which increases downtime, labor cost

Soft Materials for Tough Environments Mining operations are tough on equipment, but not all wear solutions perform equally. Certain rubber materials have been specifically engineered to withstand harsh mining environments. Through elastic deformation, rubber absorbs particle impact forces, while certain formulations provide strong cut and tear resistance for large, angular particles. ​ Advantages Absorbs impact through elastic deformation Strong resistance to abrasion, cuttin

Engineered for Maximum Wear Life In mining and and oil sands operations, slurry pumps and slurry valves are some of the most wear susceptible equipment in the industry. Constant contact with abrasive slurries, high velocity flow, and impact from solid particles result in rapid wear. Leading to frequent maintenance, costly downtime, and reduced productivity. ​ At Canadian Innovative Materials, our slurry pump and slurry valve components are engineered to deliver exceptional we
