Roll linings for the steel industry
Specialist in elastomer and composite coatings for steel mill rolls
The BORFLEX® Group has been active in the steel industry for many years.
We offer a range of elastomer grades designed to preserve industrial machinery and protect the materials being handled. BORFLEX® specialises in roller lining for the steel industry.
Thanks to its research and development laboratories and its in-house mixing facilities, the BORFLEX® Group offers comprehensive solutions for:
- repair damaged rollers,
- to improve the performance of the roller and the coating,
- to combat chemical attack and corrosion (acid baths),
- to ensure that the temperature is maintained,
- to reduce abrasion,
- to minimise problems with interruptions or deterioration.
The rollers or cylinders used on production lines are covered with a soft rubber which, through repeated contact with the sharp edges of the plates, wears down and eventually allows chemicals from the various baths to seep through.
These corrosive substances seep under the rubber, damaging the metal structure of the rollers.
BORFLEX® is constantly innovating to offer you an ever-wider range of solutions designed to improve your production equipment, and provides solutions for rollers used to transport flat and long products (coils, metal strips, sheets, etc.) throughout the various stages of production:
- stripping,
- the pre-treatment of the plates,
- degreasing and pickling operations,
- the various types of finish (coating, paint and surface protection),
- forming and stamping.
Noise reduction and protection on conveyor lines for metal products.
We offer cylinder coatings using an ebonite-based or composite-based solution that will meet your requirements.
Composite technology offers numerous benefits:
- the possibility of restoring cylinders damaged by chemical attacks,
- high impact resistance,
- superior adhesion to ebonite, which improves the cylinder’s durability,
- significant cost savings when refitting rollers,
- shorter turnaround times for future repairs (repair of the elastomer only).
We develop elastomer and composite solutions for the steel industry designed to best meet your requirements. We offer:
- stripping rollers,
- drive and stripping rollers for copper sheets,
- background rolls,
- slitting rings,
- floor protection,
- transfer rollers for wire drawing,
- scrapers,
- wringing rollers,
- sleeves,
- pebbles
