Why choose polyurethane rods?
Polyurethane rods are used in industrial (mining, agriculture) machinery as shock absorbers. They reduce the loads on metal structures, just like shock absorbers (silent blocks) in cars. In the case of raw material production, after determining the purpose and adjusting the strength of the material, polyurethane is cast in the form of a rod or roller in order to make it easier to fix it in lathes for further processing.
Polyurethane rods (class A, strength 90 Shore and above) – are easily machined on lathes, cut, sanded, drilled. In this way, a lathe operator can easily turn out the required product from this product according to the provided drawings. UAB Poliuretano sprendimai also provides turning services, so you can order not just a simple polyurethane rod, but a fully finished product.
We manufacture polyurethane rods according to customer measurements, determine the strength of the material, adapting it to the future working conditions of the product with your equipment. Although the prices of polyurethane rods are somewhat higher than those of other materials, the long-term benefits are several times greater. Our customers testify to up to 5 times longer service life of polyurethane components, which significantly saves you money and time!
Uses of polyurethane rods
In the mining industry and quarries, polyurethane screens made of polyurethane rods are used for vibrating mechanisms, which are used to sift the excavated soil in order to separate the mineral fraction. In the automotive industry - silent blocks, supports, dampers. Construction and private companies use such rods in the rotating mechanisms of excavators as dampers. Our customers have been using such units intensively without any problems for 7 years! Let's get in touch and we will find a way for you to switch to polyurethane!
In heavy and light industry, polyurethane rods are often used:
- As spacers in various fields
- As springs for manufacturing in stamping method
- In the manufacture of cuffs for pneumatic and hydraulic cylinders
- For production on lathes
- As dampers, shock absorbers
- As simple rollers and other rotating elements
