Why Rubber Lining?
Rubber lining is a protective barrier applied to internal surfaces of steel equipment to resist:
- Corrosion caused by acids, alkalis, and salts
- Erosion due to slurry and particulate flow
- Abrasion in mining and material handling systems
- Chemical attack in process industries
Using advanced vulcanized rubber technology, Diode Trading ensures maximum adhesion,uniform lining thickness, and leak-proof sealing for extended service life.
