ESCO All-Cast
Because operating bulldozer during mining and on the construction site is one of the most demanding operations, ESCO Company developed for bulldozers All-Cast moulded edges. They are available for most models of popular brands CAT® and Komatsu above 280 Ps (from size CAT® D8 and Komatsu® D155 to bigger ones). All-Cast moulded edges are designed to fit every model and fulfill requirements for providing ideal performance.
What is the difference between All-Cast cutting edges and end bits

- End bits have in comparison with normal version 16% more material. Its distribution is balanced to attain even abrasion wear.
- Angular edges have in comparison with normal version 56% more material.
- Abrasion resistant metal is situated in spots, where it achieves optimal firmness and durability for every use of the bulldozer itself.
- ESCO edge solution for D11 enables increased safety and easier installation; there are derrick loops on all parts.
- Machined contact surfaces provide balanced distribution of load.
