Product Description
Nordberg Manufacturing Company cone crushers were installed throughout North American hard-rock and aggregate operations for secondary and tertiary size reduction. According to publicly filed asbestos litigation records, the belt-driven power transmission and clutch mechanisms on Nordberg cone crushers allegedly used woven asbestos-fabric belts and friction facings. Belt replacement, clutch adjustment, and dressing operations allegedly released respirable fibers within enclosed crusher houses.
Workers Exposed
Crusher operators in copper, iron, and gold mining districts and aggregate-plant workers processing limestone, granite, and taconite are reported in publicly filed litigation records to have serviced Nordberg cone crushers. Hard-rock miners assisting with crusher outages, mill operators, and mineral processing plant workers cleaning belt debris allegedly encountered asbestos fibers during routine belt replacement.
