DEF Rubber

Where is Natural Rubber Lining used?

Natural rubber is a material extracted from rubber trees’ latex and processed to possess excellent wear resistance, elasticity, insulation, and sealing properties.

Initially, rubber found its primary applications in dry environments, such as car tires, safety airbags, sealing pipes, and gaskets. Furthermore, due to its safety, eco-friendliness, outstanding wear resistance, and elasticity, natural rubber is widely used in hiking shoes, coffee machines, other household appliances for sealing purposes, rubber gloves, and even chewing gum.

However, as technology advances, our demands for rubber performance have increased, particularly in wet abrasion applications where optimal wear resistance is essential. We are aware that traditional rubber production involves purification, dehydration, washing, granulation, drying, grading, packaging, and, especially, hammer milling after latex dehydration, which disrupts the rubber’s long-chain molecular structure, affecting its elasticity and wear resistance. DEF Rubber has developed a natural wear-resistant Rubber Sheet using advanced liquid-phase rubber-making technology. This innovative process not only retains the molecular structure of natural rubber but also requires minimal additives, ensuring outstanding performance while preserving the purity of natural rubber in the sheet.

Moreover, we have improved the traditional rubber vulcanization process, ensuring more uniform vulcanization. As a result, our natural Wear-Resistant Rubber Sheet achieves a quality level comparable to top-tier brands.

This type of natural Wear-Resistant Rubber Sheet is particularly suitable for use as equipment wear-resistant Rubber Lining in industries such as mining, metallurgy, coal washing, petroleum, construction, chemical, environmental, aviation, and military. In the mining sector, DEF wear-resistant rubber sheets are commonly used as lining for agitating tanks, hopper linings, cyclone separators, pump linings, magnetic separator drum coverings, sealing gaskets, heavy-duty screens, hoppers, lifting rods, and can also be used for belt conveyors, dewatering screen plates, and more.

In industries like coal washing, petroleum, chemical, and environmental protection, it can be used as lining for pipes, valve linings, and more. DEF Rubber can customize various types of Rubber Linings, such as oil-resistant, acid-resistant, alkali-resistant, and corrosion-resistant linings, according to customer requirements.

DEF wear-resistant rubber sheets can also be used on indoor pistol shooting range targets. When bullets penetrate, the rubber sheet immediately self-seals, leaving only very small holes. This application has received recognition from the National Rifle Association (NRA) in the United States.

Of course, the applications of wear-resistant Rubber Linings extend beyond those mentioned above, and there are many unexplored areas awaiting experimentation. If you have innovative ideas, we are eager to explore and experiment together with you.
