ENGINEERING REVIEW FOR CRITICAL MINING APPLICATIONS

Potential opportunities may exist for heavy structural components, lifting components, fall protection, vehicle structures, high-pressure components, wear components and load-bearing components. These may require specialized materials, heat treatment, welding procedure qualification, material traceability, nondestructive testing, load testing, fatigue testing, customer validation, industry certification and specialized machinery. Steel & Trucks evaluates critical applications individually before representing manufacturing capability.
