Skirtboard Rubber Uses

  1. Ideal to be used as guides or sides of conveyor belts in mining, cement industries or any industry where bulk material is transported.
  2. Our high abrasion skirt rubber is also used in the construction industry as a vibration eliminator, acoustic insulator and even to prevent telluric movements from affecting the constructions if they hit each other.
  3. Developed to withstand the constant movement of machine parts relative to each other, resisting wear and even abrasions. It can be used with slow or high speed machines that produce vibrations and shock loads in their movements.

Properties of Skirtboard Rubber

  1. Excellent abrasion resistance.
  2. Maximum weather resistance.
  3. High-quality rubber with an optimal balance of mechanical properties that guarantee excellent performance in very heavy-duty fields.

The best high abrasion skirt rubber. We are experts in rubber products and manufactures. We advise you to obtain the product with the best features! For even higher performance, see our hi-performance rubber skirt.

Self-extinguishing rubber skirt for conveyors in explosive atmospheres

Self-Extinguishing Rubber Skirt High Abrasion

Rubber material manufactured precisely to meet the highest requirements of resistance to wear, thus fulfilling the highest standards of safety in regards to fire control, this being a self-extinguishing material (rubber by withdrawing the self-extinguishing flame.) Used in conveyors working in explosive atmospheres and areas where work is severe and require longer product life, additionally absolute security against the spread of fire. For more fire-resistant options, see fire resistant rubber.

Rubber products manufactured specifically to meet the maximum demands of wear resistance. This is due to its self-extinguishing nature.

Frequently Asked Questions about Skirtboard Rubber

What is skirtboard rubber?

Skirtboard rubber is a high-abrasion rubber sheet used as a coating or guide on the sides of conveyor belts. It protects machinery from wear caused by contact with abrasive materials like cement, steel, and bulk solids in mining and industrial plants.

What is skirtboard rubber used for?

Skirtboard rubber is used as guides or sides of conveyor belts in mining, cement and bulk material handling industries. It is also used in construction as a vibration eliminator, acoustic insulator and protective coating for machinery.

What is the difference between high abrasion and hi-performance skirt rubber?

High abrasion skirt rubber offers excellent wear resistance for standard conveyor applications. Hi-performance skirt rubber is an optimized combination of elastomers providing maximum tensile strength, elongation and abrasion resistance for the most demanding material transport applications.

Is skirtboard rubber fire resistant?

Some skirtboard rubber is manufactured with self-extinguishing properties for use in conveyors operating in explosive atmospheres and areas requiring absolute safety against the spread of fire. Look for self-extinguishing or flame retardant specifications.
