Is your rubber lining failing?

It's rarely just wear.
Most premature rubber lining failures come down to five things:
Delamination from poor surface prep or bonding
The wrong compound for your actual abrasion, impact, temperature and chemical duty
Cost-driven formulations using more cost effective fillers
Inconsistent quality between batches
Poor application and curing conditions

Polyurethane linings are engineered to remove that risk:

✅ Formulations designed specifically around your wear mechanism
✅ Strong, reliable adhesion when correctly specified and applied
✅ Consistent, repeatable performance, controlled chemistry, not batch-to-batch guesswork
✅ High abrasion resistance in aggressive sliding and erosive applications
✅ Predictable engineering, hardness, thickness and formulation matched to the relevant application.

Specialised Wear Sheeting & Lining Solutions

Armadillo™️ is UMP’s trademarked wear-lining range, developed to protect equipment operating in demanding impact, abrasion and material-handling environments.

Our urethane lining range includes Hardback Polyurethane Liners, Rubber-Backed Liners, and Armadillo Impact/Sliding Sheeting. Each construction is intended for different equipment, wear conditions and installation requirements, because effective wear protection starts with selecting the right lining for the application.

UMP’s custom polyurethane lining solutions are engineered for demanding applications involving abrasion, impact and material-flow challenges. Each lining system can be configured around the equipment, material characteristics and operating conditions of each application.

In high-impact, abrasive mining environments, wear on buckets, chutes, hoppers and material-handling equipment can quickly become an operational problem, driving unplanned maintenance, component replacement and costly interruptions.

Planning your next equipment refurbishment or upcoming shutdown?

Contact UMP to discuss the high-wear areas in your operation and determine which Armadillo lining solution is suitable for your machinery.

Dealing with excessive carryback or spillage on your conveyor belt?

Material carryback is one of the biggest hidden costs in conveyor operations- accelerating belt wear, driving up maintenance spend, reducing efficiency, and causing unplanned downtime.

Polyurethane scraper blades and conveyer skirts are engineered to cut carryback and spillage at the source. Manufactured from high-performance polyurethane, they deliver reliable cleaning in demanding mining and industrial environments, protecting your belt and keeping your operation running.

📩 Ready to reduce carryback and cut maintenance costs? Contact UMP today to discuss the right scraper blade or conveyor skirts solution for your operation.
