R-Line NBR is Reglin Rubber’s advanced nitrile (NBR) lining rubber solution, engineered to withstand highly abrasive and chemically aggressive conditions in mining, mineral processing, and heavy industrial environments. Designed to protect equipment exposed to abrasive slurries, oils, and reagents, R-Line NBR offers outstanding wear life and chemical resistance in both wet and dry applications.
Key Benefits of R-Line NBR Lining Rubber
Superior Wear Resistance
R-Line NBR is optimised to handle constant abrasion from fine particles and slurry in wet processing environments. Its advanced compound resists sliding wear, protecting equipment surfaces and reducing downtime and maintenance in high-throughput applications.
Exceptional Oil and Chemical Resistance
One of R-Line NBR’s defining advantages is its resistance to oils, greases, hydrocarbons, and a broad range of industrial chemicals. This makes it especially effective in applications where traditional rubbers degrade rapidly when exposed to oil-based substances.
Adapting to Modern Processing Trends
Across the mining industry, mineral processing plants are increasingly using diesel-based and oil-based flotation reagents to improve ore separation and recovery rates. While effective, these reagents introduce new challenges for traditional lining materials, which often break down under prolonged exposure to hydrocarbons.
R-Line NBR is specifically formulated to perform in these conditions—maintaining flexibility, bond strength, and wear protection even when in continuous contact with chemically aggressive, oil-rich slurries. It is the ideal lining solution for processing plants adapting to modern reagent use.
High-Temperature Durability
With thermal resistance up to 110°C (230°F), R-Line NBR withstands elevated process temperatures and temperature fluctuations without compromising its structural integrity or performance.
Applications of R-Line NBR in Mining and Mineral Processing
Tailings Pipelines
Ideal for tailings systems handling abrasive and chemically reactive waste, particularly in remote locations where reliability and liner longevity are essential.
Chemical and Slurry Handling
Provides durable protection for pumps, impellers, pipework, and chutes where oil-based or chemically treated slurries are common.
Overflow and Mixing Tanks
Performs well in tanks where reagents and abrasive slurries are agitated or stored, resisting wash-out and reducing maintenance frequency.
Conveyor Systems
Suitable for lining conveyor pulleys and drive systems exposed to oil contamination or hydrocarbon-laden fines, ensuring consistent grip and minimal wear.
