Abstract: Rubber linings does not Corrode but will be affected by acids of high Concentration. Today different qualities are available to obtain the most economical result in every case.
Previous rubber linings often capied manganese steel linings of ship lap or wave type. It is important to find the correct distance/height ratio of the lifer bars.
The most important grinding variables from the point of view of wear are feed size, grinding media size, mill speed, and mill diameter. Normally, there are a reluctance to change these variables when converting from a steel lining to a rubber lining.
It is generally accepted that, for maximum grinding efficiency, as small a sire as possible of grinding balls should be used. In secondary mills with lifter bar linings, rubber almost always gives a better lining economg than steel. Rubber linings has shown good economic results in rod mills.
