Downtime in a primary crusher or conveyor transfer point can cost a mine site $50,000 per hour. Selecting the wrong liner material is a critical operational error. JSLT Polymers® (Factory Direct) compares three high-performance materials to help you optimize your maintenance cycle.
📑 In this article
1. 8.62M UHMWPE: The Anti-Sticking Champion
Ideal for wet, sticky ores like clay-heavy copper or uranium. UHMWPE's low friction coefficient prevents material hang-up, which is the #1 cause of conveyor downtime. However, it is limited to continuous operating temperatures below 80°C.
2. Polyurethane (PU): The High-Impact Elastomer
Our cast PU liners (90 Shore A) excel in high-rebound scenarios where heavy rocks fall from height. PU absorbs the energy that would shatter ceramic tiles or deform thin steel plates.
❓ Frequently Asked Questions
❓ Can you provide hybrid liners?
Yes, we often manufacture PU liners with embedded ceramic tiles to combine impact absorption with extreme abrasion resistance.
❓ What is the lead time for custom liners?
Standard pre-drilled liners take 10-15 days. Full chute kits with CAD layout take 20-25 days.
