 CAT BOLT-ON HALF ARROWS
MAXIMUM LIP PROTECTION THROUGH INTEGRATED DESIGN
The bolt-on half arrow (BOHA) system delivers best-in-class lip protection with fewer parts than competitive
systems. Reducing maintenance cost through better protection, and fewer parts to manage. BOHA segments
have superior hardness vs. welded components.

HIGH PERFORMANCE 14% harder than weld-on.

SIMPLIFY Up to 75% faster replacement vs. weld-on when

INSTALLATION using Cat dirt blocker rings.

SAFETY No welding-related concerns.

BOHA BASE EDGE DESIGN
The BOHA system includes a base edge specific to your bucket, which includes cast corners
(R1700-3000) and butter bead, reducing installation times by 75%.

50% more contact area reduces stress and impact, which will extend the service life of your base
edge system.

Reduce clean-out times from minutes to seconds. Dirt blocker rings compresses for easy
installation and removal with a common pick or flat screw driver.

 TOTAL WEAR PROTECTION
INCREASED PRODUCTIVITY. FOR EVERY ENVIRONMENT. FOR EVERY APPLICATION.
Get the best available protection for every product on your site, from wheel loaders
to cable shovels, with our Total Wear Protection line.

LAMINATED WEAR PRODUCT (LWP)

Chocky Bars, available in four shapes, feature a V-groove design that can be
bent around a radius. They can be separated or modified in length. The inset of
the Cat logo allows for the trapping of fine material in each section, extending
the life of the wear material itself. Chocky bars come in four sizes.

Wear Buttons, designed for applications that optimize the round profile, trap
material to provide material-on-material wear. Wear buttons are available in
four sizes.

Tear Drop Wear Button fits in with the existing line of circular Wear Buttons.
The tear drop shape can extend into corners or follow natural tapers on the
protected surface.

Roll Bars protect the leading edge of dozers, loaders, mining shovels and other
equipment, providing maximum wear protection while minimizing drag. Roll bars
are available in three sizes.

Wear Lugs are for the use on earth moving equipment in the sidebar and
leading edge of the bucket. The profile shape of the top of the Wear Lug allows
this product to be utilized in TTT applications for further traction on track shoes.

Bolt Protectors help prevent hardware wear on cutting edges, top plates,
sidebar protectors and more by allowing material to pack. They also allow for
easier removal when replacing G.E.T.

16
LAMINATED WEAR PRODUCT (LWP)
Wear Blocks are used in areas where a single piece needs to cover a large or specific surface area.
There are several new Wear Blocks in the portfolio that give more flexibility and options for coverage.

6x8” Wear Blocks are versatile and long lasting. They feature a zigzag
inset design that allows for material-on-material wear. They prevent
channel wear common in parallel grooves, delivering extended life in
extreme operations.

3x4”Wear Patch Blocks can be plug welded in tight areas.

They can also be grouped together where no gaps are desired
between parts.

11” Trapezoidal Wear Blocks can fill a tapered area or be staggered

in a pattern to avoid straight-line channels. They feature a zigzag
inset design that allows for material-on-material wear. They prevent
channel wear common in parallel grooves, delivering extended life in
extreme operations.

4x8.5” Skid Wear Blocks are rectangular shaped and perimeter welded
in place.

 MANGANESE WEAR PRODUCTS
MANGANESE WEAR PRODUCTS
Cat Manganese Wear Bar is the first to market product and is designed for the
most impact prone applications, including mining shovel heels and lips, and
in fixed plant applications including primary and secondary crushers.

Cat Manganese Wear Block are designed for the most impact prone
applications.

BI-METALLIC WEAR PRODUCTS

Cat Bi-Metallic Wear Blocks use a unique mechanical bonding process for
the highest impact applications. The mild steel jacket and fingers create a
strong bond to the chrome white iron.

TUNGSTEN Cat Tungsten Sidebars are designed to be installed on the bucket wings of
WEAR PRODUCTS any HMS, ERS, or LHEX bucket. These are an alternative method of protection
over OEM cast wing shroud systems. The tungsten carbide sidebars
strengthen the bucket sidewall and provide a shadowing effect that can
protect the sidewall from wear.

WEAR PRODUCTS STANDS

The specially designed stands are engineered
to support over 2,500 pounds of wear products.
They can be placed at the point of use parts
store, warehouse, weld shop, fabrication shop
for easy storage or consignment plans.

 ABRASION RESISTANT MATERIAL (A.R.M.)
Cat Abrasion Resistant Material is a coating made of extremely hard tungsten carbide
particles that forms a protective shield over key wear surfaces. Cat G.E.T. with A.R.M.
is ideal for high-abrasion, low-to-moderate impact applications—such as working
in sand, gravel and other abrasive materials that can severely diminish G.E.T. wear life.

CUSTOM PRODUCTS
Bucket and blade products are continually refined as they work and wear, so the G.E.T. solution often
needs to be “tailored” to your unique wear environment. Your Cat dealer can provide that custom product
for your application.
