[Irondale, AL – April 13, 2026] — Tricon Wear Solutions is announcing a new partnership with Domite® Wear Technology Inc., expanding Tricon’s portfolio of mission-critical wear products for mining and aggregate operations. Tricon will stock select parts and sizes of Domite chocky bars, wear buttons, and heel shrouds at its US-based distribution centers for rapid delivery to customers, providing maintenance teams with proven solutions for protecting high-wear areas on buckets and mobile equipment.
Domite is widely recognized for developing some of the most abrasion-resistant wear products used in heavy industry. Domite products combine an extremely hard chrome, white iron wear face—typically exceeding 700 Brinell hardness—with a mild steel backing plate, allowing components to be welded and formed without compromising structural integrity. This metallurgical diffusion bond delivers exceptional abrasion resistance while maintaining toughness for impact-prone applications.
Tricon will supply Domite wear components commonly used in bucket and ground-engaging equipment protection:
- Domite Chocky Bars for edge buildup, patch protection, and contour wear in high-abrasion zones‑up, patch protection, and contour wear in high‑abrasion zones
- Domite Wear Buttons for point impact and sliding wear areas‑impact and sliding wear areas
- Domite Heel Shrouds for protecting bucket heels from accelerated material loss
These products are used extensively on excavators, wheel loaders, and shovel buckets, as well as in other mobile and fixed‑plant wear applications throughout mining and aggregate operations.
For maintenance directors, the addition of Domite products supports predictable wear performance and faster repair cycles. Chocky bars and buttons can be cut, formed, and welded directly onto existing structures, making them well-suited for rebuilds, emergency repairs, and targeted reinforcement without removing equipment from service for extended periods. Tricon Wear Solutions brings application knowledge, fabrication expertise, and material selection support to help customers deploy Domite products where they will deliver the greatest impact—whether on bucket lips, heels, sidewalls, or high‑wear transition points.
“This partnership adds another proven wear solution to our lineup for customers operating in severe abrasion environments,” said Tricon’s Chief Commercial Officer, Anthony Stanley. “Domite products complement our engineered steel plates by giving maintenance teams effective, easy‑to‑apply protection in localized high‑wear areas.”
