In underground mining, ventilation systems are critical to safe and efficient operations but they are also highly exposed to abrasive wear. In this recent project, Elastotec, in collaboration with Carters...

When it comes to pulley lagging performance, the difference between success and failure is rarely visible on day one. It lies beneath the surface — in product quality, surface preparation...

A major gold leach wet process plant running continuously 24/7 for three years since commissioning recently faced a critical challenge. Repeated failures of cold-bonded rubber lining had led to serious...

Debonding of Ceramic Lagging Ceramic lagging has traditionally been applied to pulleys using two-part neoprene contact cements in a process generally known as ‘cold bonding’. Although this is a convenient...

Fully Vulcanised Joints – No Weak Points For Water Penetration Cold Vulcanised Ceramic Lagging (CVCL) joints are a known weak point that allows water ingress and leads to corrosion of...

Increased Adhesion to the Pulley Shell A significant cause of ceramic lagging failure is lifting of the lagging edge due to corrosion occuring at the lagging pulley interface. This is...
