  Are you wondering why your natural rubber sheets are wearing out so quickly?  Can you see signs of damage, such as stains, cracks, or swelling of the rubber sheets? Do you know the reasons behind it? Little things you are doing regularly may have a large impact on your natural rubber sheets. Check out this blog to know: User Guidelines: Avoid Using Natural Rubber Sheets in These Areas Extremely High Operational Temperature Natural rubber sheet temperature range for high temperatures is up to +70 degrees centigrade. Thus, areas having operational temperatures more than 70 degrees centigrade negatively impact the rubber sheets. The natural rubber sheeting starts to swell or melt in such high temperatures found in mining . Extremely Low Operational Temperature Natural rubber sheets can endure low temperatures up to -30 degrees centigrade. If you use them for operations that require lower temperatures, they tend to become brittle. Eventually, the natural rubber sheeting will st...

5 Industries that Can't Operate Without a High Temperature Silicone Rubber Sheet

Image
  You will be shocked to know about the versatility of a high temperature silicone rubber sheet . Starting from the food-processing sectors to electronics , silicone sheets are all the way!

Why Indian Switchboard Mats Still Win in a Tariff-Hit U.S. Market?

Image
USA president Mr. Trump's 50% tariff on Indian businesses has already become the talk of the town. Whether praising or bashing it, the new tariff-structure will certainly hit the buyers. But, how does it hit the electrical safety products market, especially 'India-made' switchboard mats ? Let us throw some light on it. Indian products are valued for 'efficiency at a low cost'. Especially, for safety products, numerous research articles have suggested that buyers prefer 'Made in India' equipment over their unreliable Chinese counterparts. But, what are the reasons behind this trust? We will discuss that through these points: Electrical Switchboard Matting: A Quick Overview Tariff Update: Pros and Cons 6 Reasons Why Tariff Hit Cannot Stop Indian Switchboard Mats from Booming in the U.S. Market Conclusion Electrical Switchboard Matting: A Quick Overview Electrical Switchboard Matting has high demand in the U.S. market.

How is a General Purpose Conveyor Belt Different from an M24 Conveyor Belt?

Image
  Do you ever wonder why experts want more information about the loads your conveyor belts are going to carry? Do you think the type of load has any relation to what kind of belts you should install? Yes, it has. They will recommend the suitable belt type, general purpose conveyor belts , or M24 conveyor belts as per the materials you are going to convey. Wondering what makes them different from each other? What Makes General Purpose Conveyor Belts Different From M24 Conveyor Belts? 7 Key Factors 1. Tensile Strength General Purpose Conveyor Belts: The tensile strength of a general purpose conveyor belt ranges from 10 to 20 MPa. Hence, it can carry light to medium-weight loads, including sand, limestone , pulp (dry), and others. M24 Conveyor Belts: They have higher tensile strength. The "24" in a M24 conveyor belt represents its tensile strength, which is 24 MPa. As a result, it can carry heavy loads without breaking down. 2. Elongation at Break General Purpose Conveyor Bel...
