Abrasion is generally a physical, rather than chemical, form of material degradation.  Abrasive wear occurs when a hard rough surface slides across a softer surface.  ASTM (American Society for Testing and Materials) defines it as the loss of material due to hard particles or hard protuberances that are forced against and move along a solid surface.  

Uretech specialize in the manufacturing of sacrificial wear liners.  Sacrificial in the sense that our wear liners are installed on the inside of applications that are exposed to excessive wear.  Our wear liners will therefore be worn out, instead of the application.  It is therefore very important that  the lining installed has great wear resistant properties and it easy to install and to replace.  

Over the years, Uretech has developed a number of wear lining solutions, including light weight polyurethane liners, which competes mainly against steel liners.  We have also developed a patented polyurethane dead-box lining, which is easy to install and replace. Uretech has the ability to change the properties of our linings, in terms of thickness, hardness, flow-ability, toxicity, etc.  We take holistic approach to abrasive wear and have the ability to specify different technologies for different problems.
