Multoslip Low Friction Lining

Multoslip UHMWPE

Multoslip Ultra-High Molecular Weight Polyethylene is supplied in sheets with or without rubber backing and can be easily shaped or cut to line material storage or handling equipment

Multoslip Properties:

• Low coefficient of friction 0.12
• Very good sliding ability
• Water repellent – non swelling
• Abrasion resistant
• Impact resistant and does not splinter
• Resistant to corrosive media
• Can be UV stabilised and made antistatic
• Self lubricating
• Good properties at low temperatures (-250◦C to 90◦C)
• Non toxic
• Machinable to various shapes

Applications

Multoslip is ideal for the lining of surface where “hanging up” is a problem and low friction qualities are needed

• Bunkers and silos
• Transport and storage bins
• Screen underpans
• Fines chutes
• Filter press chutes
• Transfer points on conveyor systems
• Dump Trucks
• Magnetite bunkers

Fixing Methods

Rubber backed – Sheets can be effectively glued in place using cold vulcanising adhesive where mechanical fastening systems cannot be used

Sheets – Various mechanical fastening systems can be used (some of which are shown below) and the utmost care is taken during installation to achieve best results

Counter Bore with set screws and cover plugs	Counter sunk set screws	Counter sunk thread forming bolts
