ABRESIST® Linings

Wear Resistant Fused Cast Basalt Linings
For Friction Induced Abrasion



Abresist fused cast basalt lining is made of a mineral based wear protection material for pneumatic and hydraulic system components. ABRESIST Linings proved abrasion, heat and wear resistance.
  • Basalt linings can be used up to temperatures of 350°C/662°F.
  • FDA approved.
  • Standard cylinder sizes range from 40 mm to 500 mm internal diameter for pipes and bends.
  • Highly effective in hydraulic and pneumatic conveying systems with some installations lasting more than 30 years.
  • Production of virtually any shape or size lining.
  • ABRESIST linings get smoother with use, ensuring good flowability and the avoidance of plugs, reducing pressure losses and lowering energy costs.
  • Special tile shapes are made for larger pipe diameters, cyclones, chutes, separators and Archimedes type screw pumps.

ABRESIST® fused cast basalt linings are a mineral based, wear resistant material that protects material handling and processing components conveying abrasive materials. The pre-engineered ABRESIST linings and tiles are produced by melting volcanic rock, then casting into shaped tiles or cylinders, and annealing at carefully controlled temperatures to attain the desired hardness.

Installation: cylinders or shaped components in cement mortar. In special cases epoxies or synthetic mortars may be used due to strong mechanical stresses and/or vibration. Where higher temperatures are concerned, potassium silicate mortar may be used for installation.

Application temperature: up to 350°C/ 662°F depending on application and geometry.

Advantages: highly abrasion resistant, smooth surface that lasts, no corrosion.

Abresist Corporation manufactures fused cast basalt / ceramic linings that provide abrasion and impact protection. ABRESIST® linings reduce downtime and maintenance. The ceramic pipe linings are highly resistant to the abrasive effects of bulk materials. Ideal for lining components susceptible to severe abrasion in pneumatic / hydraulic systems, plant material handling and processing operations. Abresist Wear Resistant Fused Cast Basalt Linings is a mineral based wear protection material for plant components when the conveying material produces friction induced abrasion.
With life times of more than 30 years, ABRESIST pipelines have been used for the hydraulic conveying of ash on all continents. This plant in the U.S. has over 10,000 meters of 294 mm ID pipe in service. Hopper in a large German
blast furnace plant.
