Belzona Facts
Belzona was the only method of repair available for such a ram and without it the ram would have had to have been replaced. The application was completed for only 400 Euros, a tiny fraction of the cost of a new ram which would have had a lead time of more that 4 weeks taking a large amount of this mill off line.
