Saint-Gobain WRT


Background


Industrial Linerback & Services (ILB) is a representative of the Saint-Gobain WRT Group which is the company’s wear-resistant tile group. The WRT Group, based in Latrobe, PA, offers several different products through ILB that can be used in a variety of industries. If combatting wear resistance is your challenge, we have the solution in an impressive ceramic product called Durafrax. If you have an impact issue combined with an abrasive issue, ILB has a solution for that too: a hardened plate or HC250 wear plate that can be bolted in and out. Bottom line, when it comes to resisting abrasion and high heat, Saint-Gobain’s Durafrax is proven to outlast steel 16 to 1 or chromium carbide overlay by 4 to 1 --see the graph above.
