Stefmet Technologies have the capacity to design and fabricate chutes and launders to the client’s specifications as well as offer various wear liner options to optimize the material flow and wear life of the chutes and launders.

 

The Chute and launder wear lining options include:

  • DuratileAlumina Ceramic tiles from 6mm thick to 50mm thick depending on application
  • DuratileAlumina Ceramic and Steel Panels, bolt and and countersunk
  • Silicon Carbide tiles
  • Hardened Steel
  • Duraplastic UHMWPE and HDPE
  • Wear compound with ceramic beds and chips
  • Rubber Linings and rubber panels
  • Chromium Carbide overlay wear Panels

 

Stefmet Technologies also pre-cut and supply wear liners for existing chutes and launders using the preferred wear liner options. Any wear liner options not shown can be sourced according to the client’s requirements.

SIC

Stefmet Technologies offer silicon carbide wear-resistant products that have superior wear qualities and recommended for extremely aggressive wear applications. There are various types of silicon carbide manufacturing processes, the most common being reaction bonded and nitride bonded silicon carbide. Stefmet Technologies primarily offer reaction and nitride bonded silicon carbide for a wide range of applications from flat tiles to pipe tiles for cyclone refurbishment, including monolithic silicon carbide spigots.

Pulley Lagging

Stefmet Technologies offer various Pulley Lagging types. These are:

Direct Bonded pulley lagging:

  • 6mm thick or 12mm thick tiles are used which are direct bonded to the pulley using Stefmet’s Durabond Hi-Bond epoxy. These tiles are directly bonded to the pulley and will outlast rubber lagged pulleys by a factor of 5 times.
  • Ceramic lagging for drive pulleys has dimpled tiles for improved grip and to reduce belt slippage
  • Water dispersing channels are also added to ensure less belt slippage
  • Tail pulley lagging applications make use of a plain ceramic tile

 

Rubber pulley lagging is also offered to suit customer requirements.
