Segmented wear strips — hard wear faces on a weldable backing, the segments letting the bar follow curved lips and profiles solid bar can't. They armour bucket lips, side faces and leading edges: anywhere sliding abrasion is eating an edge that a full plate can't wrap. Pattern and size are listed per bar.

By the wear's shape: bars protect lines — lips, heels, edges — while buttons dot-protect spots: corners, lift points, the local patches that polish bright first. Most buckets run both, and the old bucket is the map: put the new protection where the last lot wore and where bare steel is starting to shine.

Carefully, to the maker's guidance: the wear face itself isn't welded — the weldable backing or lugs are — in short runs with suitable consumables, avoiding the heat build-up that cracks hard material. It's routine for a fabrication-competent workshop; the application notes per product flag the specifics.

When they're consumed — worn flat, worn through, or shed — and before the parent steel underneath starts wearing in their place: that's the entire economics of sacrificial protection. A quick look at greasing time tracks it, and replacing a few bars at refurbishment is pocket money against rebuilding a lip.

Bars & Buttons

Wear bars and buttons are armour in strip and stud form: the chocky bars, laminated wear bars and weld-on buttons that protect bucket lips, sides, heel bands and high-wear corners where full plates don't fit and parent steel pays the price. PartsForMachines supplies bars and buttons by pattern and size, alongside the wear plates and the wider GET family.

The formats divide by shape and duty. Chocky bars, the segmented, easily welded strips, armour bucket lips, side faces and leading edges, their segmented backs letting them follow curves that solid bar can't. Laminated and solid wear bars take heavier sliding abrasion on heel bands and floors, and wear buttons, the weld-on studs, dot-protect the spots that wear first, corners, lift points, the local hot-spots a few buttons save. White-iron and through-hard constructions cover the hardness range, with each product page listing pattern, dimensions and material, and Ask Simon answering layout questions against photographs of the wear the bucket is actually showing.

The application logic is targeted: bars and buttons go where the old ones wore, and where shiny parent steel says wear is starting, with welding the usual installation, short runs to the manufacturer's guidance, since white-iron components weld differently from plate. Renewal timing is the GET constant, replaced when consumed, before the structure underneath starts feeding the grinder.

Wear plates, sidecutters and the GET family sit alongside. For pattern and layout advice from photographs, contact the team via WhatsApp 07754288583.
