3 Ways to Save Money with Abrasiplate

Posted by Sioux Rubber & Urethane Team on Jul 10, 2020 9:05:26 AM

Abrasiplate is our signature steel-backed rubber, and there’s a reason it has been a bestseller for over 60 years. This customizable rubber sheet is a go-to for construction companies, sand and grit blasting businesses, manufacturing, quarries, and more. Abrasiplate will decrease abrasion and minimize wear and tear on a wide variety of equipment. It is customizable, versatile, and incredibly durable. We’re proud of these 3 ways Abrasiplate continues to help our customers save time and money:

 

1- Reduced downtime. When equipment is down, money is lost. Repair timelines can be long and lead to more costs in addition to the money you’re losing while your machinery is down. Fortunately, Abrasiplate can be shipped directly to you and bolted into place over the original surfaces. Our best-selling sizes (¼” and ½” thick) are kept in stock, and are readily available for next-day shipping. Imagine how easily you could be up and running with improved equipment! We’re all about taking the innovative and practical steps to get you back up and running, faster and better than ever.

 

2- Unmatched durability. Our signature process sets us apart. Abrasiplate is vulcanized to create a chemical bond between the rubber and metal substrate under pressure and heat, creating adhesion that is 3 times stronger than typical cold-bonded rubber. With a product this long-lasting, costly repairs and replacements will be at a minimum.  If you have equipment with cold-bonded rubber that is failing or peeling, we can strip it down and recover it with high-quality rubber protection that will stand the test of time. The Abrasiplate we use in our own blast room at Sioux Rubber has been going strong for over 18 years!

 

3- Versatility. The possibilities are truly endless with Abrasiplate. It can be manufactured in almost any thickness out of almost any kind of rubber. From red natural, to food grade, to neoprene - we can make it happen! We’ve even layered Abrasiplate in varying thicknesses to create added shock absorption on a roller. We offer customized pricing to help you make the most of your investment and your equipment, and we’re here to help you brainstorm the best solution.

 

Abrasiplate is a go-to solution for getting the highest use out of your equipment, and it will leave you with less worry and more profit. Contact us today for more information on how we can create a custom rubber solution for you!
