AUSTRALIA · CONVEYOR BELTINGCover compounds
Severe Abrasion — AS-A
A specialised abrasion-resistant class for applications dominated by sliding wear.
Product overview
Built around the duty.
AS-A is selected when laboratory abrasion loss is the dominant cover criterion. It targets severe wear conditions, but a very low abrasion-loss result does not automatically make it the best compound for cutting, gouging, tearing or mechanical peeling.
Construction & selection
What defines this product.
- Very low permitted abrasion loss
- Specialised wear-focused classification
- Best selected from the actual wear mechanism
- May be combined with carcass protection where impact or rip risk also exists
Typical applications
Where it fits.
- 01Concentrated sliding abrasion
- 02Fine, highly abrasive materials
- 03Short high-wear conveyors
- 04Applications with wear-dominated belt life
Relative performance profile
Selection guidance without proprietary data.
Bars show a qualitative application profile only. They are not laboratory results and do not use a numeric scale.
Specification note
These are AS-A minimum classification properties, not Double Arrow proprietary test results. Abrasion loss is only one part of compound selection and should not be used as a universal service-life prediction.
