Haver & Boecker Niagara Presents Rhino Hyde Liners
BY AsphaltPro Staff
Haver & Boecker Niagara, St. Catharines, Ontario, now presents Rhino Hyde liners to enhance the wear life of a full range of equipment. The company’s custom-blend liners are strategically formulated and installed on key wear, material handling and impact areas of chutes, hoppers, vibrating screens and more. Rhino Hyde, constructed from thermoset polyurethane, boasts superior abrasion resistance, durability and chemical resistance compared to alternatives like thermoplastic polyurethane, rubber or metal, according to the manufacturer. Rhino Hyde liners offer a simple fix to seal worn spots. Polyurethane liners are a cost-effective solution and have the unique characteristic of being higher wear but are also a lighter-weight product with reduced maintenance and replacement costs, according to the manufacturer.
Rhino Hyde liners are designed for applications such as screening, material handling and hauling. They can be fully customized to the required size and are available in multiple styles and attachment systems including the classic Rhino Hyde Blue, magnetic, urethane-backed ceramic, polyurethane blades, belt skirting and weldable liners.
- Rhino Hyde Blue: These liners boast high abrasion and impact resistance, along with reduced noise and vibration. Additionally, they are designed to not expand or contract in environments with fluctuating temperatures. Rhino Hyde Blue liners can be custom-made with several different backings, including solid steel, plain, expanded metal, fabric and ceramic chip embedded.
- Magnetic Liners: These liners feature rare-earth magnets that fasten to steel without welding or bolting. Users can simply place the liner and remove as needed, saving both time and labor. They are designed to reduce material sticking, lessen noise and provide protection in even the most demanding applications. Magnets stay secure regardless of climate and withstand high levels of vibration and impact, according to the manufacturer.
- Urethane-Backed Ceramic Liners: These liners are installed where severe abrasion is an issue. The highly abrasion-resistant panels have replaced plain or weldable ceramic tile for decades in aggregate, coal, fly ash, glass, grain, gravel, cement and other industries. They combine the cut and abrasion resistance of ceramic, and the impact resistance and resiliency of Rhino Hyde polyurethane.
- Weldable Liners: These standard Rhino Hyde weld-in liners are installed with tack welding and have weld plates every 6 to 8 inches (15 to 20 centimeters). Rhino Armor weldable liners feature backing made entirely of perforated steel plate. These liners are designed to excel in heavy-duty applications, particularly those with heavy load drops.
