Redco™ Premium Lining Solutions
Redco™ Lining Systems promote reliable, steady bulk material flow, with durable materials that are impervious to abrasion and chemical and corrosion-resistant.

Redco™ Lining Materials have a low coefficient of friction with no moisture absorption.
Reduce or eliminates arching, ratholing and erratic flow to get your materials moving. Lining applications are available for Trucks, Hoppers, Bins, Bunkers, Chutes, Silos and many more. Custom fabrication and “DROP IN” Liners are also available for easy installation.
Our Installation Lining Specialists are also available to get the job done quickly with minimal down time with on-site installation or deliver the item to us and have it lined in our fabrication shop.

Redco™ Truck Liners
Redco™ Truck Liners virtually eliminate material hang up concerns in a variety of environments and applications; including gravel, road cinders, wet and frozen soil and limestone. Withstanding high impact; two times the wear of steel and four times the wear of aluminum.
Available in Redco™Virgin UHMW, Redco™Reprocessed UHMW, Redco™ X-Static, Redco™ Titanium, Redco™ Tivar & Redco™ Quicksilver
.

Redco™ HI-VIZ Liners
Redco™ HI-VIZ liners prevent sticking and freezing.

Redco™ Shovel Solutions
Redco Shovel Solutions Lighter than aluminum and longer lasting than rubber and wood – Redco Plastics are engineered for the toughest applications such as: Redco Urethane Shovel Bumpers and Door Bumpers, which have been developed to protect costly equipment and increase safety. They have an excellent “memory”, rebounding to their original shape for longer wear life. Redco Dipper Door Blocks are used during maintenance, propping open the door and keeping workers safe from entrapment.

Redco™ Cable Sheaves & Pulleys
Redco™ Nylon Cable Sheaves & Pulleys offer high load bearing capabilities (up to 4000 PSI), are light weight, self lubricating and have a low co-efficient of friction. Redco™ Nylon is easily machined and is both an outlasting and outperforming replacement for metals and other plastics. A heat stabilized formulation is available for applications with a maximum continuous operating temperature of 260ºF.
• Ultimate compressive strength is 15,000 psi
• Bearing compressive strength is 4,000 psi

Redco™ House Bump Hard Plastic Rollers
Redco™ Urethane house bump hard plastic rollers keep cables from colliding with the housing unit due to the slack created by the motions of the bucket and draw controls. This reduces both the impact force of the cables and the vibration they cause.
As a secondary benefit they help keep the cables from colliding and ensure they’re on track.
Redco™ Urethane rollers retain the most optimum wear life and reduce your maintenance costs with less time spent switching out new parts.

Redco™ Pads & Bumpers
Redco™ Pads & Bumpers constant banging and scraping will wear out equipment prematurely. Redco™ Plastics are engineered for the toughest applications to absorb impact and prolong equipment life. We have developed numerous parts for trucks and shovels such as:

Body Pads, which have been designed to replace traditional rubber pads, provide longer wear life and don’t permit the impregnation of rocks. The pads bolt or weld directly to the bottom of the truck box to protect the frame from shock, vibration, and wear.

Bumpers, which are available in many custom sizes, protect the truck body from banging ladders, wheel chocks, etc. while the truck is in motion.
