Why Manufacturers Love
Industrial
Epoxy



They say that love makes the world go ‘round, but when it comes
to
the industrial world
,
chances are that
anything
that rolls efficiently does so thanks
to
high quality [http://www

.Because of
advances in manufacturing
capability
and technology
,
Sunray can formulate
the
right urethane compound to fit your demanding applications
.
Whether it
is
a wheel
,
roller
,
or a custom polyurethane part
.

Thanks
to
its variety of uses and longstanding reliability
,
industrial epoxy is a popular choice among manufacturers. This heavy-duty polymer can be used on almost
anything
, ranging from concrete floors
to
water tanks, expensive industrial equipment and much more
.
Due to the substance’s naturally occurring properties, industrial epoxy is both long
-
lasting and extremely durable
.
Its chemical makeup accounts for its ability to form firm bonds, allowing for even the toughest of materials to be joined together
. Because of
this
capability,
industrial epoxy is heavily relied upon in
the
manufacturing world
.
When sold for industrial use, epoxy
is
typically shipped in oversized containers
,
each capable of holding large quantities of the substance
,
and is most often bought in bulk by manufacturers
.



The Many Uses
of
Modern Industrial Wheels

+

Most manufacturers use expensive equipment that is frequently exposed to corrosive substances, including water, alkali bases and harmful chemicals. In order to safeguard this equipment from further deterioration, companies rely on various types
of
industrial epoxy as a solution to these problems. Not only is this substance capable of repairing damaged industrial equipment, but its protective polymer coating provides long-lasting prevention against corrosion.



Polyurethane castings or custom molded urethane can be
used
to make
a
variety of essential components
for
industry that include virtually any kind of caster
,
wheel or roller imaginable
.
That means drive wheels
,
material handling wheels
,
equipment
and
conveyor rollers
,
heavy duty casters, idler wheels
, and
v-grooved or u-grooved urethane wheels
,
nip rollers
,
feed rollers
,
small plastic wheels
,
robot wheels, and guide wheels – plus replacement rollers
and
recycled polyurethane wheels
.

Industrial epoxy is also
used
as
a
reliable method
for
both repairing and maintaining concrete floors often found in warehouses
,
manufacturing centers and industrial plants
.
Given their constant exposure to heavy industrial traffic
,
these concrete floors become spalled and worn over time
,
which eventually leads to the development of holes
and
cracks throughout the concrete flooring. Manufacturers use industrial epoxy to repair damages
,
while simultaneously resurfacing the floors with a resilient protective coating. This industrial epoxy coating is capable of withstanding tough impacts
,
harsh abrasions
and
heavy traffic
,
along with offering resistance to strong chemicals
,
solvents
,
cleaners
,
corrosives
and
acids
.



All Sizes of Urethane Wheels

+

Water and waste management equipment, including pipes, water tanks, wet wells and basins, can easily erode due to their constant contact with elements such as salt water, mineral acids, alkalis and sewage. To repair current damage while preventing future deterioration, manufacturers apply an anti-corrosive industrial epoxy coating to all water and waste management equipment. Not only will it repair any preexisting corrosion, but it will provide long-lasting protection against future damage, despite being faced with high temperatures, harsh chemicals and abrasive materials.



Industrial machinery takes on many shapes and forms
,
and
the
wheels that keep the manufacturing
and
distribution sectors rolling also come in
a
wide
range of
sizes,
for
example
,
small polyurethane-covered ball bearings
for
use
in product
handling
to
large industrial crane wheels for heavy lifting or abusive environments.

+

Overall
, the
development
and
use of [http://www.csscorp.net industrial epoxy] by manufacturers has proven to be
a
great success. In addition to the
range of
things
for
which it can be used
,
it also offers protection
for
your important assets while saving money
in
the long run. With the variety of industrial epoxies currently available on the market, manufacturers can be sure to find the right
product to
fit their company’s needs
.
Industrial epoxies’ ability
to
repair damage while withstanding dangerous substances
and
extreme conditions
,
makes it an invaluable commodity for manufacturers across the world
.

One very established company that manufactures polyurethane wheels is Sunray
.
Sunray is geared
to
produce your industrial wheels or rollers quickly
and
with technical expertise. They can produce new custom products or recover existing worn parts (returning them to like-new condition)
,
or you can purchase standard wheels and rollers from Sunray. Their informative website is located at www.sunray-inc.com
