GOLDLINE® PREMIUM 38

High abrasion resistant pre-cured natural rubber sheet for rubber lining

SETAT™ Submerged Elevated Temperature Abrasion Testing.

Historically, rubber compounds have been ranked, specified and selected based on a wet version of the ISO 4649 dry abrasion test method. The SETAT test cell developed by Trelleborg Mining goes much further in its rubber testing regime to provide a new ranking of rubber compounds in terms of rubber loss.

- SETAT rubber test specimens and coupons are fully immersed during the test.

- SETAT cell can be heated to various temperatures to reflect actual slurry and operating conditions.

- SETAT test duration is significantly longer than ISO 4649. Rubber specimen contact with the selected test abradant can run up to 8,000 metres.

- SETAT test forces applied to the rubber specimen can be adjusted to reflect in-plant forces that rubber lined surfaces are subjected.

- SETAT test cell velocities can be varied.

- SETAT testing can be conducted at a range of abradant roughness’ to assess rubber loss under a range of wet fine and wet coarse conditions.

Trelleborg’s GoldLine® Premium 38 outranks other premium natural rubber sheet compounds under a range of SETAT test conditions and expect that this new test method will yield far greater insights for engineers involved in the specification and selection of premium rubber compounds needed to resist wet abrasion in mineral processing circuits.
