Oil Resistant (FOR) Lagging is ideally suited for use on pulleys operating on systems that convey oily materials. Elastotec Oil Resistant (FOR) Lagging is engineered to provide long service life by providing resistance to varying types of oils, while still maintaining a level of outdoor ageing and abrasion resista nce . The rubber compound also offers Fire Resistant and Anti – Static properties
Why use oil resistant ceramic lagging?
-Longer service life when handling oily materials such as bitumen, tar sand and various grains.
-Resists tile loss due to oil resistant bonding system
-Resists debonding of the lagging from the pulley shell due to oil resistant bonding system
-Reduces operating costs
-Elastotec developed bonding system and application procedure and “Approved Applicators” ensures a reliable result.
* Note: For a Cold Bond application, oil resistant lagging needs to be applied with a neoprene based adhesive system such as the Elastotec Cold Bond Adhesive or ContiSecur BFA Adhesive. The use of adhesives based on other polymers must be avoided as these may be prone to deterioration in contact with oil.
Elastotec Oil Resistant (FOR) Lagging is designed for use in low to medium belt tension applications, and can be applied to conveyor drive, tail, snub, bend, or take – up pulleys. It is used for conveyor system applications in the agricultural and construction processing industries when resistance to oily materials is required.
*Note: Elastotec Oil Resista nt (FOR) Lagging does have Fire Retardant and Anti – Static properties, but if FRAS/MSHA certified lagging is a requirement then the Elastotec FRAS Lagging should be used. Refer to the Elastotec website for more information on FRAS/MSHA certified lagging
