What a bundled kit includes for crusher maintenance
A bundled kit is put together around the crusher set-up on site and the work planned for that shutdown or service window. Typical contents include jaw plates, mantles, concaves, blow bars, liners, locking components, fasteners, wedges, shims and other support items needed to fit the wear parts correctly. Where the job calls for it, we also group fitment consumables such as backing compound, retaining hardware and item counts matched to the machine schedule.
The aim is to reduce split orders and avoid the common problem of a mine receiving the main wear parts but still waiting for a few small items that stop the fitter from completing the change-out. For remote operations, that delay can mean extra standing time, higher labour cost and lost output. Bundled ordering helps keep the change-over moving in one pass.
- Jaw crusher kits for fixed and swing jaw wear parts, fastening hardware and fitment support items
- Gyratory and cone crusher kits with mantles, concaves, wedges and related hardware
- Impact crusher kits with blow bars, liners and fixing components
- Supporting items such as bolts, nuts, washers, spacers and wear liners where required
How we build a kit around your site conditions
We build each kit from the crusher type, the part numbers on hand, the wear pattern on the machine and the service interval you are planning for. If a site in Phalaborwa is running dusty ore, or a quarry near Rustenburg is dealing with harder feed and longer hours, the wear rate can shift from the expected schedule. That is why the kit is checked against the actual operating conditions, not just a blanket list.
Our team looks at the size of the crusher opening, the liner profile, the bolt pattern and the change-out sequence so the shipment matches the job. If the site is working through load-shedding or limited crane time, we can group items so the fitter has what is needed ready on arrival. That reduces repeat handling and keeps the lift plan simple.
- Machine type and chamber configuration
- Wear stage and expected replacement window
- On-site lifting limits and available tools
- Transport route, offloading point and site entry rules
The ordering process from enquiry to dispatch
Clients start through the enquiry form on our contact page. From there, our team checks the machine details, the parts needed and the site location before confirming what can go into the bundle. If the order is for a planned shutdown, we work back from the service date and set the packing sequence to suit the freight plan. For urgent jobs, we narrow the list to the critical wear parts first and then add the support items that will keep the crew moving.
Once the kit is confirmed, it is picked from stock holding where available and prepared for loading. The pack list is kept clear so the receiving team can check quantities quickly on site. If a component needs a separate return freight plan after removal, we can set that up at the same time, which helps avoid confusion when the old parts come back for inspection or storage. The process is practical and straight forward, with one point of contact from start to finish.
- Send the enquiry with the crusher details and service date
- We confirm the parts list, quantities and any missing information
- The bundle is picked, checked and prepared for freight
- Delivery is coordinated to the mine, quarry or offloading point
Turnaround times and freight planning for remote areas
Turnaround depends on stock status, route distance and whether the order needs consolidation with other freight. For remote mines in the Northern Cape or Limpopo, timing is often tied to gate access, escort requirements or the availability of an on-site forklift. In Middelburg, Witbank, Steelpoort and the surrounding mining belt, we can often move faster because the route is shorter and the stock base is close by.
We plan freight for rough roads, long-haul travel and site constraints such as narrow access roads, dust, wet weather and evening offloading. Where needed, loads are secured for vibration and long-distance movement so the kit arrives in usable condition. If the site is subject to local municipal restrictions on access times or noise during offloading, we plan around that as part of the delivery window.
The point is not just to send the parts. It is to get the right bundle to the right place, in a condition the fitter can use immediately.
Pricing approach for bundled part kits
Pricing is based on the parts included, the quantity of each item, freight distance, packaging requirements and whether the order is drawn from stock or assembled to suit the job. Bundled kits are often more cost effective than placing several separate orders, because they reduce repeated freight charges and cut down on ad hoc collection costs. They can also reduce hold-ups caused by missing smaller items, which is where the hidden cost usually sits.
We quote in Rand and keep the structure clear so clients can see what is part of the kit and what is tied to transport or special handling. For shutdown work, we can quote across multiple service lines in one schedule, which helps procurement compare the total job cost instead of looking at one line at a time. The numbers stay practical, with no padded extras and no guesswork.
- Parts value calculated by item and quantity
- Freight priced by route, urgency and load size
- Packaging and securing costs added where required
- Optional consolidation for orders headed to the same region
Matching kit changes to wear intervals and shutdown windows
Wear intervals vary by feed type, tonnage, moisture, blasting conditions and how consistently the crusher is run. A site working hard in Gauteng may need a different change-out rhythm from a quarry in Kathu or a remote mine in the Northern Cape. Bundled kits help align stock with the interval so the machine is not waiting on parts when the shutdown starts. That makes planning easier for maintenance teams and reduces last-minute rushes.
For planned shutdowns, we recommend grouping the main wear parts with the likely support items for the same interval, rather than ordering them one by one. Where a site has had repeat issues with fasteners, lifting points or liner seating, we can add those items to the next bundle so the crew has a complete set on hand. Thabo Mokoena and the team can work through the order with you and adjust the list as the site conditions change. It is a small step, but it often saves a full shift of delay.
