Case Study: Solving a major platinum mine's hose wear challenge

In 2023, Truco was called by a leading platinum mining company to address an onsite issue. The client's imported hoses experienced unusually high wear, failing within one week, resulting in significant downtime and replacement costs for the mine.

Truco deployed a team of hose engineers to evaluate the situation on site. Upon completing their analysis, the team recommended implementing a ceramic-lined hose to better withstand the excessive wear observed in that section of the plant.

Once installed, the ceramic hose achieved a service life of 15 weeks, significantly reducing downtime and replacement expenses for the operation.
