Armorite Rubber

Apron or Armorite Rubber is a high-resistance industrial elastomer used in conveyor belts, mining plants, and cement plants. Designed to withstand extreme conditions of abrasion, impact, and temperature, this material is also known as high-abrasion rubber or armorite rubber, and is available in High-Abrasion and Flame-Retardant versions.

High-Abrasion Apron Rubber

High-Abrasion Apron Rubber provides excellent wear resistance in applications with abrasive materials or high impact. Its formulation ensures high durability against continuous friction, ideal for protecting industrial equipment and structures.

Manufactured with superior-performance elastomers, this armorite apron rubber maintains its mechanical integrity under severe load or pressure conditions. It is ideal for side aprons in conveyor belts and linings in hoppers or ducts.

With a dense structure and good energy absorption, high-abrasion rubber reduces component wear and extends equipment lifespan. It is a reliable option for mining, cement, and aggregate plants seeking to minimize maintenance downtime.

Flame-Retardant Apron Rubber

Flame-Retardant Apron Rubber combines excellent mechanical performance with self-extinguishing properties, offering greater safety in areas exposed to heat, sparks, or direct flame. Its special formulation prevents fire propagation and maintains structural integrity at elevated temperatures.

This flame-retardant armorite rubber maintains good flexibility and resistance, making it ideal for coatings, aprons, and protectors in demanding industrial environments. It is widely used in mining, cement plants, and power plants where fire safety is a priority.

In addition to its flame-retardant capability, flame-retardant apron rubber offers acoustic insulation and vibration absorption properties, contributing to a safer and more efficient work environment.
