Screen Media and Crusher Wear Parts
Polyurethane Screen Panels
Cast polyurethane modular panels and tensioned mats for fine and wet screening. Long life and good pegging resistance, at the cost of open area.
Features
- Polyurethane flexes enough to release near-size particles, which is why it pegs less than wire at the same aperture.
- It handles wet fine screening well, where a wire cloth blinds and stops making a cut.
- Hardness in Shore A is a specification choice: softer resists blinding, harder resists abrasion.
- Cast apertures have thicker walls than woven wire, so open area is lower and capacity has to be checked against the duty.
- Modular panels on a standard grid allow the worn area of a deck to be replaced without stripping the whole deck.
Specifications
| Figure | Typical range | Unit | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|---|
| Aperture | 0,5 - 60 | mm | Covers finer cuts than rubber can reach. |
| Panel thickness | 20 - 50 | mm | Sets wear life and support requirement. |
| Hardness | 60 - 95 | Shore A | Trades blinding resistance against abrasion resistance. |
| Open area | 25 - 45 | % | The lowest of the media families; capacity has to be designed for it. |
