About Our Team
Exceptional Wear Life For Your Equipment
North Queensland Hardfacing (NQHF) has been a leading supplier of tungsten carbide hardfacing since 1996. NQHF has been leading the way in innovation, quality and creating cost savings for customers.
We have a great deal of experience in designing effective wear packages for loader and digger buckets while using the right material for the right place, giving exceptional wear life, while not overweighting the bucket.
Our whole philosophy is to cost effectively extend the life of weld-on, bolt-on or pin-on components, affordably extend the life of buckets, and reduce the day-to-day maintenance scheduling on all types of plant, whether it be fixed or mobile, large or small. The result is better productivity, delivering real savings by reducing maintenance costs throughout Burdekin, Mackay, Mount Isa and the Hunter Valley.
Our wide range of capabilities includes:
- Workshop services such as welding, cutting, drilling & pressing
- Stockists of Hardox wear plate from 3mm to 50mm
- Stockists of chromium clad plate CC1500 for situations where a smoother finish is essential
- Rebuilding worn buckets to achieve maximum life without overweighing them
