July 25th 2014, Drummondville, Que. – Soucy Plastiques, a
subsidiary of The Soucy Group, has launched a new impact bar designed to
increase replacement intervals and productivity in the crushing circuit.

Manufactured in a one-step compression molding process using
proprietary formulas developed by The Soucy Group (rubber and UHMW-PE), Soucy
HD (Heavy Duty) Impact Bar construction consists of a thick layer of rubber
entrapped between two layers of slick UHMW-PE. The construction of this bar
effectively absorbs the impact of falling materials, while the long-wearing
UHMW outer slider bar seals the load zone.

"Two years of field testing in a major Canadian crushed
stone quarry show that the Soucy HD impact bar enhances its service life by 55%
compared to the current bars," said David Ouellet, Engineering Director at
Soucy Plastiques.

The UHMW-PE bottom layer (aluminium frame replacement)
provides a consistent load transfer, is flexible and has memory so it deflects
and then snaps back to its original shape, offering an improved seal between
the conveyor belt and the impact bed. In addition to greater durability, the
Soucy HD Impact Bar has a lifetime warranty against delamination. "The
exclusive bar construction is rust and spark free, and is simple to install and
replace, making the task of changing bars safer, faster and easier."

Soucy HD Impact bars are suitable for most of the impact
beds available on the market and are interchangeable with other bars (tailored
machined slots).
