Part Category: Shaft Sleeves

ICS Mill Master sleeves are designed with the ideal combination of properties for exceptional performance. With high hardness, high density, strong bonding, non-galling, low friction, and superior corrosion resistance, ICS wear sleeves (replacement for Warman® 075+076) outperform many exotic ‘high-performance’ coatings in the most demanding abrasive pumping applications.

Packing applications place specific demands on equipment, particularly in terms of friction and abrasion. While tungsten carbide and other exotic overlays create an exceptionally hard wear surface, they rely on relatively soft binding alloys. As these binders erode, exposed carbides can worsen wear, especially when running at high surface speeds against soft packing polymers. This is a perfect example where increased hardness is not directly related to increased wear life.
