MSHA-Compliant Protection & Performance for Quarries

Guards, Grizzlies, Hardened Tail Rolls

Guard examples

01

Guards

At Red Iron, we specialize in custom-fabricating guards for moving parts on quarry and aggregate equipment—designed to meet strict MSHA standards while prioritizing worker safety and operational efficiency.

Our guards feature:

  • Easy access for routine maintenance and inspections

  • Self-cleaning designs to minimize buildup and downtime

  • Secure, tamper-resistant construction for reliable protection against hazards like pinch points, rotating shafts, and conveyor components

Whether you prefer self-installation with our detailed guidance or want our experienced, MSHA-certified crew to handle on-site installation and hazard remediation, we're here to eliminate risks in your Central Oregon quarry operations—giving you full compliance and true peace of mind.

Built tough in-house from premium materials, these guards outperform off-the-shelf options and help keep your team safe while your equipment runs smoothly.

Premium Grizzly Rock Screens – Engineered for Speed, Durability, and Maximum Uptime

Our top-of-the-line grizzly rock screens deliver fast, efficient material handling in the toughest quarry and aggregate environments. Designed with quick screen changes, superior toughness, and built-in self-cleaning action, they keep your operation moving without unnecessary downtime.

  • Instant Wedge Release — A quick bump from the bottom or top instantly loosens wedged aggregate, saving valuable time and eliminating the dangerous need for workers to go under a loaded screen.

  • Fast, One-Man Screen Swaps — Change screen sizes in about 2 minutes using just one operator and one machine—no workflow interruptions. Order the exact screens you use most.

  • Steep-Angle Design — Promotes smooth flow, reduces plugging, and boosts overall screening efficiency.

  • Built to Outlast the Competition — Fabricated from premium steel, heavy-walled tubing, and reinforced in high-stress areas for exceptional longevity. You'll save significantly over time compared to cheaper, lighter-duty alternatives.

These grizzlies are designed and manufactured by us for real-world reliability—because when the pit's running, you can't afford anything less.

Abrasion Resistant Self Cleaning Tail Rolls

Downtime kills productivity. That's why we engineer our conveyor tail rolls to outlast the competition at a competitive price.

Key features include:

  • AR400 Contact Points — Abrasion-resistant steel (AR400) in high-wear zones withstands constant abuse from rubber belts and aggregate, dramatically extending service life.

  • Customizable to Your Specs — Choose exact bushing sizes, lengths and outer diameters (OD) for perfect fit and smooth operation on your conveyors.

  • Shaft Optional — Get the complete assembly or just the roll—tailored to your setup.

  • Designed for Real-World Durability — Premium materials and smart wear-point reinforcement mean fewer replacements, less maintenance, and lower long-term costs compared to standard or cheaper rolls that fail prematurely.

These custom-fabricated tail rolls keep your quarry conveyors running longer and harder—because in the pit, reliability isn't optional.
