ELASTOMERIC COATING MATERIALS

BUNA NITRILE ELASTOMERIC COATING

Buna Nitrile is commonly known as Buna –N Nitrile (NBR) which is made up of Nitrile-Butadiene. This Elastomeric (Rubber) Coating Material has a higher hardness, strength, lower resilience, abrasion, heat, oil and fuel resistance, along with lower temperature flexibility. All of these elements can be active with increasing the acrylonitrile content in the application desired. Buna Nitrile is available in any color and is an excellent Elastomeric Coating Material choice for slasher, pull, drive, tension, deflector, idler or guide rolls along with most textile finishing and steel mill rolls.

It's ideally suited as a coating material, but not limited for felt and fabric carrying positions and guide positions. This Coating Material is designed to maximize doctor and cover life, thus it has good doctoring to eliminate stock buildup. Ebonite is available in black or tan.




    URETHANE

    Here at Electro-Coatings we design and manufacture our own urethane covers. Our Super 99 Urethane material is used as coating rolls for coils, metal decorating, varnishing and coating of paper, plastics and wood. Urethane also offers resistance to aliphatic, aromatic solvents and some esters. Being a Super 99, urethane covers have hardness ratings from 15-55 Shore A.




    HARD URETHANE COATINGS

    Hard Urethane is a practically indestructible covering or coating for tough applications. Hard urethane has an ultra-high cut, tear and abrasion resistance. With a durometer range form70 to 99 Shore A and Shore D, these Coating Materials are used on pinch, feed, conveyor pulleys, conveyor idlers, wheels, bridle rolls, oiling rolls, tension leveling roll and are great for contact rolls or belt sanders.




    MILLABLE URETHANE COATING

    Millable Urethane, produced from liquid cast technology, is thermoplastic resins, which is typically molded. Urethane is available in two basic chemical types: polyesters, which have excellent solvent and fuel resistance; Polyether, which works better when used with water, especially at high temperatures. One reason for using Millable Urethanes in roll applications is its extreme toughness and durability due its all-around hardness. It also can be used as an ester-type Urethane, which has resistance to aliphatic and aromatic-type solvents.
