SR640 Natural Rubber Lining

This natural gum rubber lining material provides impact abrasion and Hydrochloric (HCl) Acid resistance.

Lining Specifications

Lining Code: SR640

Type: Natural (Black)

Tie Gum: Without Tie Gum / (Available With Tie Gum upon request.)

Properties: Durometer 45 +/- 5 Shore A – Natural soft, black lining for impact abrasion and Hydrochloric (HCl) Acid resistance.

Primers and Adhesive System:

  • One coat Chemlok® 289 on Metal
  • One coat Chemlok® 290 on Metal
  • One coat Chemlok® 286 on Metal
  • One coat Chemlok® 286 on Lining

Cure Time and Temperature:

Cure for thickness up to ¼”

Pressure, Saturated Steam (Autoclave)1 hr. @ 20psi 260°F (126°C)
Internal Steam Cure4 hrs @ 10psi 240°F (115°C)
Atmosphere Steam Cure24 hrs. @ 190°F-205°F (87°C-96°C)

Note: All reference to cure psi represents gauge pressure.

**Cure times may require tunings to compensate for low temperatures, heavy metal thicknesses, and other anomalies. Contact SRR Technical Department for recommendations on lining thicknesses over ¼”.

Storage

Ideal storage temperature is 50°F not to exceed 85°F and shelf life is 180 to 45 day range respectively.

Depending on storage conditions it may be possible to use rubber linings beyond shelf life. Please contact Salem-Republic Rubber Company for technical advisement before usage.

Application Suggestions

  • SR640 lining shows acceptable rubber to metal adhesion without or with Tie Gum. 
  • For gauges greater than ¼” plying up to desired thickness is recommended using a 45°/135° butt splice with offset seams on all but the top layer. 
  • When plying up, the first layer can be installed without or with Tie Gum. The Tie Gum on subsequent layers is not necessary, therefore the top layer may be lapped with an open skive. 
  • Experienced applicators may have techniques which produce equal or superior results and by no means are SRR’s application suggestions meant to replace these proven techniques. As long as those procedures fall within industry standard lining application guidelines.
