WEAR-PROOFING

EXPERTS FOR 60+ YEARS

Good Earth Tools started off by solving the unsolvable.

In 1964, Missouri’s hard-rock mining industry accepted productivity-crushing wear problems as part of doing business in an exceptionally aggressive industrial application.

But our founder, Keith P. Williams, engineered a better way. His tungsten carbide wear-proofing solutions tripled and quadrupled wear life — often extending performance by as much as 10x — even up against a mining operation’s worst abuse.

In the years since, Good Earth Tools has grown into a global leader in wear-proofing technology, perfecting our efficiency-driven solutions to tackle equipment challenges for many other exceptionally demanding industries, from mineral processing to power generationconstruction, and more.

Our custom tungsten carbide-protected parts last longer and hold stronger against high impact, extreme heat, and unrelenting abrasion, erosion, and corrosion.

We learned the lesson early on:
With expertise and determination,
no wear problem is unsolvable.
WHY GOOD EARTH TOOLS?

Good Earth Tools is a manufacturing company, but fundamentally, we’re problem solvers.

Industrial operations rely on dependable equipment to sustain safety, productivity, and profitability.

Premature wear failures aren’t an option. Profitability isn’t sustainable with constant maintenance and parts replacement driving up downtime.

Good Earth Tools’ tungsten carbide wear protection is the solution.

With customized, tungsten-carbide protected equipment and parts, wear-life problems are solvable — and profitability goals are reachable — even in the most extreme applications.
