About 4B Braime Components

Founded in the UK in 1971, 4B Braime Components, Ltd. has been an industry leader in developing high quality, innovative, and dependable material handling components for the agricultural and industrial sectors.

The 4B Group

4B has one of the world’s largest range of bucket elevator components. A leader in elevator bucket and bolt design and manufacturing, 4B also supplies the highest quality elevator belting and offers its own range of drop forged conveyor chains, suitable for the toughest applications.

4B’s electronic division specializes in level controls, electric sensors and safety control systems that mitigate the risk of explosions in hazardous areas. With an extensive range of ATEX/IECEx/CSA-approved hazard monitoring systems, misalignment switches, bearing temperature monitors and level indicators, 4B can offer anything from a replacement sensor to a fully integrated hazard monitoring system that can be operated either as a stand-alone system or connected to a PLC or 4B’s cloud-based Hazardmon system.

4B has always been known for the quality of their engineering support, which in turn is based on research and ongoing product testing. 4B offer their customers a Free Design Service, whether to trouble shoot an existing problem, increase the capacity of an existing machine, or assist in the detailed design of new equipment. We feel that our additional services are just as important as our products themselves.

The 4B Braime Group - 130 Years of Engineering Excellence

The 4B Braime Group, a British PLC listed on the London Stock Exchange, has just celebrated its 130th anniversary this year. The company has been a pioneer of the material handling industry, introducing the first pressed seamless steel elevator bucket back in 1909 and since then leading the field in elevator bucket design. Innovation has always been at the heart of the group's ethos, and maintaining their tradition of making better products by Engineering Design, 4B has contributed many innovative products and solutions to the material handling industry, including: the Starco elevator bucket (the world’s first low profile elevator bucket using centrifugal discharge on a parabolic elevator head which revolutionized the way bucket elevators work until today), the Bolt ‘n’ Go chain system (a revolutionary assembly method for drop forged chains using bolt-on flights instead of welding), the Watchdog Elite bucket elevator monitoring system (the world's first hazard monitoring system that could monitor a complete bucket elevator or conveyor system), and most recently Hazardmon, a cloud-based hard monitoring solution.

The 4B group is committed to keep up its investment in innovation and looks forward to a bright future.
