Description:

Nukote’s high performance polyurea coatings provide a unique solution in the maintenance of Ball and SAG mills in the gold processing industry.

After removal of wear plates in the mill, the existing rubber lining is removed. The internal surface of the mill is then abrasive blasted to SA 2.5 and tested for surface contaminates. Application of 6mm of Nukote ST is then immediately applied on the internal steel surfaces.

Nukote ST system is 95% cured within 5 minutes of application. The fast curing characteristics of the Nukote system allows re-installing the wear liners of the mill to commence almost immediately after the coating has been applied.

Nukote’s seamless liner system also prevents “racing” that occurs in the joints of traditional rubber liners. The system can be partially or fully installed to a mill and repairs to the liner can be undertaken quickly and efficiently during planned shutdowns.
