This damn thing lasts too long. Sigh, 90,000hours is 10 years. I could see they will have a great price power when the miners got used the their plates.

A D11 bulldozer with a normal weld hard facing overlay needed the blade reworked after only 22,000 hours. In the same mining location, an Arcoplate lined bulldozer blade has lasted for 45,000 hours and is still in operation. Estimates show the blade is likely to last for 90,000 hours.
