LINARD® HD RANGE
The Linard® HD range of products are natural/synthetic rubber blends specifically designed to exhibit exceptional toughness without compromising natural
elasticity. Linard® HD products are particularly suited to high impact applications or the handling of coarse aggregates, where cutting and gouging play a major
part in the abrasive force.The Linard® HD range includes Linard® HD60, Linard® HD70 and Linard® HDS. Linard®HD60 rubber is ideally suited for the aqueous
applications involving aggregates, in which sliding abrasion is the major concern. In applications such as primary screen decks and heavy duty transfer chutes,
where cutting and slashing by sharp edged heavy particles is the leading cause of abrasion, Linard® HDS and Linard® HD70 rubbers are the recommended solutions
within the Linatex® family.
