Vale Copper Cliff Clarabelle Mill Crushing Plant - StonCor Stonset CG5 Polymer Grout Solutions for Crusher Bases THE CHALLENGE In 2002, Vale Clarabelle Mill was looking for a solution to repair their Crushing Plant cone crusher bases. StonCor Group recommended Stonset CG5, a four component, castable, epoxy grout designed for setting heavy equipment and machinery in place.

THE STONHARD SOLUTION StonCor was awarded the contract to repair 5 crusher bases. All loose and deteriorated concrete was removed by jackhammer method and the area was cleaned and prepared using a high pressure water blasting method. Mylar (plastic) lined plywood forms were installed and Stonset CG5 was placed into the formwork and allowed to cure for 8 hours. The forms were removed and the crusher was put back into service. After 8 years of continuous operation, none of the 5 crusher bases have required service!
