Rubber for protection of pipes from rust

Steps for Creating a Rubber Lined Pipe

• Fabricate the pipe
• Inspect the Weldment
• Prepare the Substrate (Blasting)
• Apply Adhesive System
• Make a RubberTube
• Stitchthe Tube Seam
• Insert the Tube into the Pipe
• Applythe Flange Faces
• Vulcanize (Cure) theLining
• Inspect & Spark Test the Lining
• Blast Unlined Surfaces
• Paintthe Unlined Surfaces
• Final Inspection

 

RubberLinedPipe

 

Rubber lined pipe is used to transport Abrasive Slurry solutions, Corrosive Chemicals, and many other liquids from one place to another. Since most Rubber Lined Pipe applications are for transporting abrasive slurries, we test our materials for abrasion resistance to ensure we are providing you with the best product suited to your application.

We install rubber linings in pipe as small as 1½” dia. and as large as 144″ dia. We vulcanize (cure) the lining installed in pipe up to 88″ diameter (flanged) in our autoclaves. Curing in an autoclave produces superior adhesion properties over other processes (i.e. atmospheric and internal steam). Autoclave curing also maximizes the lining life in the pipe versus other methods.

We apply rubber linings over many different pipe substrates including: carbon steel, aluminum, copper, brass, cast iron, stainless steel & fiberglass. We can fabricate and rubber line your pipe with a minimum lead-time. All Rubber Lined Pipe orders receive the same attention, whether it’s a large order, or a single piece.

 

Our expertise is in bonding rubber to metal parts. For mining operations, this includes: Pipe; Tanks; Chutes; & Launders. We test our materials for their ability to resist abrasion.
