Stubborn ball studs can turn a routine changeout into a maintenance delay.

Watch Geographe’s award winning Ball Stud Removal Tool (BSRT) in action during a short demonstration at a customer’s site in Canada... the laugh of the Maintainer says it all!

Site demonstrations bring the tooling to the maintenance teams working through these challenges, opening practical conversations about ball stud removal, task safety, and downtime.

We have ball stud tools to suit Caterpillar 777, 785, 789 & 793 trucks, including those fitted with Extended Life Brake Packs.

Premature pin wear and unpredictable service life can disrupt CAT loader maintenance planning and take machines out of operation.

A customer favourite for decades, our Greased Solid Pin Kits address these challenges with case hardened pins and bushings, purpose-built grease retention, and pressure-fed lubrication that purges contaminants. They also eliminate the need for 80–100-tonne pressing forces, supporting easier, safer installation and removal.

Paired with our compatible Lubrication Kits built from customer feedback, the existing onboard grease system automatically lubricates each bushing, reducing manual maintenance.

See how the two kits work together to support component life and machine availability:

Every maintenance task is an opportunity to review the risks people face and how the work can be done more safely.

October is National Safe Work Month in Australia. The 2026 theme, “Safe work is for life,” highlights why work health and safety matters, what it protects, the long-term impacts of workplace harm, and the need for action across all workplaces.

For mining and maintenance teams, that means looking beyond the next shift: reviewing recurring tasks, addressing difficult component changeouts, and involving the people doing the work in practical improvements.

At Geographe, safer maintenance is a driver of our engineering approach, alongside equipment reliability and productivity. Muscular Skeletal Injuries (MSI's) are something we strive to help reduce and eliminate for mine workers though lighter parts and our specialised tooling - watch Stephanie Clarke, Senior Occupational Therapist discuss with Hassan Qadri, Technical Sales Manager Muscular Skeletal Injuries (MSI's) within the mining industry.

This October, Australians are coming together for Breast Cancer Awareness Month to support research and help move us closer to zero deaths from breast cancer.

Every fundraiser makes a difference—from a pink Pilates session to taking on 56 km across the month. Together we can help fund research to prevent, detect, stop and treat breast cancer.

Stop digging around for parts.

When critical wear parts are needed, overseas lead times can slow your maintenance schedule and extend downtime. Geographe helps you move faster with Australian stock held in Perth, Bunbury, Mackay and Singleton — and if it’s not on the shelf, we can manufacture on demand.

We design, manufacture and supply replacement wear parts to suit Caterpillar, Hitachi, Komatsu and Liebherr heavy equipment, helping miners reduce delays and keep maintenance moving.

If you need dependable local supply backed by practical engineering support, get in touch with us:

When a wheel fails, the problem is never just the wheel.

Premature wear and structural failure can drive up maintenance costs, interrupt production, create safety risks, and damage surrounding infrastructure. For mine sites working under constant load, that is a problem worth solving properly.

That is why Geographe approaches Heavy Rolling Wheels from a problem-solving perspective first. Our Enhanced Performance (EP™) Wheels are engineered for high-wear, heavy-duty applications where uptime, durability, and maintenance efficiency matter most.

Instead of accepting the limits of traditional cast wheels, we focus on the engineering details that change outcomes: stronger materials, case hardening for wear resistance, forged components where fatigue strength matters, and full contour hardening to support long-term performance while maintaining rail integrity.

The result is practical Asset Optimisation: reduced downtime, lower maintenance labour, improved service life, and greater confidence in the components supporting your critical assets.

From stacker and reclaimer bogie wheels to trunnions, shuttle wheels, idler wheels, and drive wheels, Geographe works with miners to solve specific wear challenges with application-specific solutions.

If you missed our update last week, Geographe was proud to be named the winner of the Excellence in Mine Safety, OH&S category at the 2026 Australian Mining Prospect Awards.

Announced at Fraser’s Kings Park in Perth, the recognition reflects our continued focus on solving problems and engineering safer maintenance outcomes for miners.

As specialists in solving challenges within heavy machinery equipment, we help reduce risk, minimise downtime, and support more consistent maintenance practices on site through Specialised Tooling and Enhanced Performance Parts.

We also acknowledge and congratulate the other finalists in the category for their contribution to higher safety standards across the mining industry - its good to see how many other companies are out there, trying to solve for their customers.

From a Bunbury based engineering specialist to a trusted name in Australia’s mining industry, we aim to demonstrate what’s possible when innovation, precision and customer focused problem solving come together.

By identifying common points of failure in heavy mining equipment, our replacement parts have evolved into enhanced performance wear parts and specialised tooling designed to improve reliability, safety and productivity—including our award-winning Ball Stud Removal Tool.

With advanced automation supporting our manufacturing capabilities, we have a world class manufacturing facility thriving in regional Western Australia.

We believe that Australian engineering excellence, focused innovation and the on-demand manufacturing facilities we have built can deliver measurable value for mining customers.

Thanks to NAB for telling our story. Read it here: https://hubs.la/Q04xcCk30

Zeroing in on points of failure has seen Geographe win a stellar reputation with Australia’s miners. And now the company is looking further afield in its ambition to manufacture excellence.
