Saunders Valve Linings

Some examples of valve linings and applications:

Hard rubber -NR -HRL

Used for salts in water, dilute mineral acids

chlorine water, de ionised water, plating solutions

and potable water

Soft butyl rubber IIR-BL

Good for corriosive and abrasive slurries, mineral acids

acidic slurries

Glass

Used in multi process chemical plants on acids and

solvents

Polypropylene-PP

Main applications include minerial acids, salts in water,

water and effluent treatment chamicals

Ethylene tetrafluoroethylene

Suitable for strong acids, salts in water at higher temp

ETFE

solvents at medium temp

Perfluoroalkoxy -PFA

Most suitable for concentrated mineral acids at high

temps, aromatic,aliphatic and chlorinated solvents

Poltetrafluorothylene-PTFE

Most suitaable for concentrated mineral acids at

higher temps, aromatic,aliphatic and chlorinated solvents

Soft natural rubber-AA/SRL

High abrasion resistance, suitable for use on

powers, abrasive sluuries, clays, coal dust, dry fertilizer

gypsum

Neoprene -NRL

Particulary suitable for animal,vegetable, fatty oils

and greases, abrasion resistance, over wide PH range

used for aggressive slurries
