As with chemical resistant coatings correct and thorough surface preparation is essential to the wear resistant coatings success. Premature failure will be the result of inadequate or incorrect surface preparation. The second critical decision is utilising the correct materials chosen only once the full operating conditions of the friction environment is understood. AB Chem can offer variations in lining thicknesses tailored for cost effective solutions, fast cure products to minimise plant downtime and the incorporation of wear indications to enable plant shut down scheduling.
