Slurry & Bulk Material Transportation

Transporting slurries, abrasive media, and bulk materials in mining and industrial environments requires durable piping systems capable of handling significant mechanical stresses, impact, and abrasion. Thermoplastics such as HDPE excel in these conditions, offering high-impact resistance, excellent flow characteristics, and reliability under fluctuating pressures and high flow rates.

For particularly demanding applications involving heavy abrasion and impact, PE 1000 superlining sheets (UHMWPE) provide exceptional abrasion resistance, reduced friction, and anti-adhesive properties, effectively preventing material caking and arching in hoppers, chutes, and transport vehicles. The use of PE 1000 liners enables optimized wall angles in hoppers and reduced tipping angles for unloading, ensuring efficient material flow and reduced maintenance downtime.

For hydraulic and pneumatic slurry transport PE 100 AP-Line pipes and fittings (SIMONA) offer an advanced solution with their integrated abrasion-resistant interior layer. These specially engineered pipes significantly outperform standard solid-wall PE 100, steel, and GFRP pipes,delivering longer service life and superior resistance to internal wear caused by sand, coal sludge, ores, and other granular materials.
