LINER TERMINOLOGY
Bottle Neck - The dimension between the inside diameter of the bowl liner and outside
diameter of the main shaft sleeve on a Standard crusher. This dimension can be a
restricting area when compared to the feed opening on the open side.
Bowl Liner - Secured inside of the bowl to protect it from wear.
Feed Opening Closed Side - The dimension representing the maximum feed opening
when the mantle is closest to the bowl liner.
Feed Opening Open Side The dimension representing the maximum feed opening
when the mantle is farthest away from the bowl liner.
Filler Pieces Cast steel segments that are welded to the inside of the bowls on
Standard crushers to reduce the quantity of backing when installing a fine or medium
bowl liner in a coarse bowl.
Head Wear Ring A conical rolled steel part that is usually supplied in segments that is
welded to the head below the mantle when using short liners in a SHORT HEAD
crusher. The head wear ring prevents erosion to the head from the discharge of
crushed material in a short crushing chamber. The head wear ring is changed once for
two to three mantle changes.
Locking Collar A threaded component which is bolted to the top of the SHORT
HEAD
onto which the locking nut is attached. The threads of the locking collar are left
hand.
Locking Nut A threaded component that is turned onto the locking collar to exert a
clamping force on the mantle. The threads of the locking nut are left hand. The locking
nut is changed once for two to three mantle changes.
Locking Nut Cover A component which is threaded into the upper portion of the
locking nut SHORT HEAD
with standard main shafts. The main shaft sleeve protects the portion
that extends above the head. The main shaft sleeve is changed once for two to three
mantle changes.
Mantle Covers the head of the crusher to protect it from wear. The 4 foot and
smaller crushers have a one piece mantle. The 5 foot and 7 foot crushers have two
piece mantles, upper and lower mantle.
Minimum Closed Side Setting Theoretically the tightest that a specific set of liners
can be set at. Due to fines in the feed, hardness of the rock, moisture, feed distribution
and feed segregation it may not be possible to achieve the minimum closed side setting.
The minimum operating closed side for any set of liners is when there is no adjustment
ring movement, no excessive lube oil drain line temperatures or crusher stalling.
Maximum Closed Side A setting where the bowl is engaged into 1 to 2 threads of
the adjustment ring.
Nip Angle - The angle that is developed between the surfaces of the bowl liner and
mantle when the mantle is at its closest relationship to the bowl liner. Nip angles should
not exceed 23 degrees for best material flow through a crushing chamber.
Thru Bolt A means of retaining the bowl liner in the bowl with a straight bolt through
lugs on the bowl liner and into the bowl.
"U" Bolt The means of retaining the bowl liner in the bowl with a "U" shaped bolt
inserted under the hooks of the bowl liner and into the bowl.
Upper Mantle On 5 and 7 foot crushers, the mantle is in two pieces, upper mantle
and lower mantle. The two piece configuration reduces the mantle change out cost
because most of the wear is done to the lower mantle. The upper mantle is changed
once for two to three lower mantle changes.
Torch Ring A sacrificial piece that is located between the main shaft sleeve and main
shaft nut which is burnt out with a torch to relieve the pressure on the mantle and allow
the main shaft nut to be loosened.

METALLURGY CHOICES
There are different alloys that are commonly used for the Symons
:
XT510 This is an 11% to 14% Hadfield manganese. XT510 replaces the Metso alloy
designation 0861-500. XT510 is used as an all-purpose liner in all secondary and fine
crushing applications for the Symons crushers.
XT710 This is an 18% manganese chrome alloy and will typically provide longer life
than the XT510 or XT610 manganese alloys. The XT710 replaces the old Metso 0861
512, XT500 and MNK material designations. XT710 is used for abrasive applications in
the Symons 7 crusher.
XT720 This is a 22% manganese chrome alloy that will typically provide longer life
than the XT710 manganese. This material can only be applied in 5 foot crushers and
smaller and in applications where there is no tramp iron in the circuit. The XT720
replaces the old Metso MNS material designation.
For typical applications refer to the table SYMONS CONE LINER ALLOYS AND
APPLICATIONS.

BASIC LINER SELECTION
FEED SIZE IS KNOWN
To chose a liner combination when the top size of the feed is known, divide the
thickness of the largest feed by 0.8 to get the required feed opening on the open side.
For example if the you are selecting a liner combination for a 5 ' Standard crusher and
the thickest piece is 8", divide 8" by 0.8 to get the required feed opening on the open
side. (8" / 0.8 = 10"). Refer to the 5 ' Standard cavity tables and select a liner
combination that has a feed opening on the open side that is close to 10". In this case a
4830 6771 bowl liner and a 5013 6801 upper mantle with a 5013 7001 lower mantle
would be selected. Use the shaded liner combinations where ever possible as these
are the most common.
KNOWING THE FEED OPENING
There are cases when the customer may want to know what the maximum size feed a
given feed opening can accept. To determine the maximum size piece that will fit in a
given feed opening on the open side, multiply the feed opening by 0.8.
For example if the liner combination for a 4 ' Standard coarse has a feed opening on
the open side of 9 5/8" (9.63") the thickest piece that could be fed to it would be about 7
". Multiply the feed opening o the open side by 0.8, (9.63 X 0.8 = 7.7").

CRUSHER CHAMBER PROFILING
Now it is possible to model the shape of the chamber without dismantling the crusher.
By using NORDBERG-FOAM KIT it's easy to see how the mantle and bowl wear during
the life of the liners. This process can be used on all cone type crushers. It also helps
to solve the problem cases.
The spare part number of the Nordberg-Foam Kit is 803582.
Instructions:
1.) Set the plastic sheath into the chamber.
2.) Move the sheath to the closed side position in the chamber.
3.) Mix 0.35 kg A-component and 0.5 kg B-component (half tin A&B).
4.) Pour out mixed A+B components into the sheath.
5.) After expansion of the foam move down the main shaft and remove the sheath.
6.) Draw worn contour by using the expanded foam sheath or send the filled sheath
(or drawing) to Metso
NORDBERG-FOAM KIT contains:
- A-component 0.7 kg/tin
- B-component 1.0 kg/tin
- plastic sheath 2.0 m
