Fasteners for Mining & Minerals Processing
Heavy-duty structural bolting for crushers, conveyors, mills, and processing equipment. Built for extreme mechanical stress and harsh operating environments.
Engineered Bolting for Heavy Mining Applications
Mining and minerals processing operations subject fasteners to extreme mechanical stress, constant vibration, abrasive environments, and demanding maintenance schedules. Equipment uptime is critical, and fastener failure can result in costly production shutdowns and safety incidents.
We supply high-strength structural bolting, heavy hex fasteners, and specialty components for fixed plant equipment including crushers, SAG mills, ball mills, conveyors, and processing systems. Our fasteners are selected for durability, ease of installation, and reliable performance.
With options for protective coatings, oversized grades, and custom specifications, we support mining operations from open-pit sites to underground facilities and mineral processing plants.
EMG also manages drawing-controlled supply of large-diameter collars, sleeves, pump shafts, bearing housings, valve stems and manifold components through qualified machining partners. Material, usable part capacity, tolerances, inspection and lead time are confirmed against each RFQ; EMG does not claim ownership of the machining equipment.
EMG supplies Grade 8.8, 10.9, and 12.9 high-strength structural bolting for crushers, SAG mills, and conveyors — with hot-dip galvanizing and abrasion-resistant coatings for extended service life in harsh mining environments.
Typical Applications
- Primary and secondary crushers
- SAG mills and ball mills

- Chute and bin liner fastening
Where Our Fasteners Are Installed
A closer look at the key sectors within mining & minerals processing where our fasteners play a critical role in equipment integrity and safety.
Extraction — Open Pit & Underground
Mining extraction subjects fasteners to extreme mechanical shock, vibration from blasting, and abrasive dust environments. Equipment bolting must be robust, easily replaced during maintenance windows, and resistant to fatigue failure.
- Primary and secondary crushers
- Haul truck and shovel assemblies
- Drill rigs and roof bolting systems
- Ore chutes, bins, and liner plates
- Ventilation and dewatering systems
Comminution & Material Handling
SAG mills, ball mills, and conveyor systems generate constant vibration and heavy cyclic loads. Fasteners for grinding circuits and material handling must withstand sustained dynamic stress and enable efficient replacement during scheduled shutdowns.
- SAG mills and ball mills
- Conveyor structures and idler frames
- Screens, feeders, and classifiers
- Transfer chutes and diverter gates
- Stackers, reclaimers, and ship loaders
Processing & Hydrometallurgy
Mineral processing plants use chemical and physical separation methods that expose fasteners to acidic slurries, chloride-rich water, and elevated temperatures. Corrosion-resistant and coated fasteners are essential for long service intervals.
- Flotation cells and thickeners
- Leach tanks and agitators
- Slurry pumps and cyclones
- Electrowinning and SX circuits
- Filtration and tailings systems
