Mining is undoubtedly one of the most toughest working environments of any industry and one that causes the most wear on equipment. Subjected to dirty, cold, abrasive and humid conditions, the greased bronze bushings traditionally used in mining equipment demands constantly maintenance.
This does not happen with Thordon bearings, and they can be the perfect replacement for greased bronze bushings and work efficiently in many of mining equipment applications such as, crushers and feeders, centrifuges, truck locks and stabilisers, and more.
Thordon bearings are a succesfull solution with a wide offer of polymer bearings that outperform traditional greased bushings, significantly reducing the operating and maintenance costs.
Maintaining their morphological stability under heavy shocks and with reduced wear, Thordon bearings significantly reduce plant or operational downtime by reducing the frequency of bushing maintenance.
The benefits of Thordon are as follows
We offer solutions for the mining industry by providing and designing specific models according to the needs of the application in the demanding conditions that prevail in this sector, emphasising reliability, resistance and product cost. We provide tailor-made solutions by extending the standard products the valve market generally offers, with our own service and engineering team. Some of the main applications for our guillotine or knife gate valves are: slurry, cyclones, coal conveying, ore processing, filter tanks, thickeners, tailings, pelletising, sand and silica reduction, dewatering systems, mud washing, acid leaching, milling circuit…
