COATINGS

There are many different types of coatings. One of the most popular coatings for conveyors is SBR rubber used to cover the surface of a pulley to increase the friction between the pulley and the belt.  Other coatings like Teflon™, are also common for use in applications where release or “non-stick” characteristics are required.

AVAILABLE COATINGS

-Butyl: Butyl has a rubber-like coating, and can be used for many things such as sealant.
-Ceramic: Ceramic is a non-metallic material made from clay. Ceramic is very hard but it is also brittle.
-Custom Blends: Custom blends can come in a wide variety of materials, it’s all up to you to decide which materials they are.
-Elastomer Blends: Elastomer is a special material that can be stretched to about 2x its original length, when contained in room temperature, and when released, it returns to its original respective size.
-EPDM: Stands for Ethylene-Propylene-Diene Monomer. This is a rubber like material. It also has good insulation. It also has excellent flexibility under low temperatures. It also has a very high cut through resistance.
-FDA:  Food and Drug Approved
-Hypalon: Hypalon is a synthetic rubber, used for insulating and jacketing for things such as wires.
-Natural Rubber: All natural rubber, used for things such as latex rubber gloves.
-Neoprene: Also a synthetic rubber, with a very good resistance to oil, chemical and flame. This material also has excellent cold temperature flexibility. Almost the same as natural rubber but does not require sulfur for vulcanization
-Nitrile: One of the most commonly used coatings, because of its all around good physical properties, its resistance to petroleum fluids and its useful temperature range.
-PTFE: Stands for Polytetrafluorethylene. This material is extremely slippery, which is easily abraded in its unfilled state.  It also has low flammability and has high resistance to almost all chemicals.
-Pure Gum: This coating is usually achieved by wrapping our pure gum rough top belting onto the roller itself. This is one of the more common coatings that we do, and provides good functionality in comparison with the lifespan it has.
-PVC: PVC (which stands for Polyvinyl chloride) is a common material and is used in many everyday applications. It has lots of flexibility and can resist weathering.
-SBR: Another type of synthetic rubber. It has very good resilience and tensile strength, however, this material has poor o-zone and oil resistance.
-Silicone: Silicone has a very high heat resistance, and has plenty of durability, even more than natural rubber and standard rubber.
-Teflon™: Teflon™ is known of its high heat resistance. Teflon is also a very strong material. Teflon is also virtually indestructible by any type of fluid.
-Urethane: Urethane has excellent flexibility and chemical resistance.
-Viton: Excellent heat resistance [up to 400°F/200°C]
