Declogging rods

Lubas declogging ropes are an innovative solution in the field of sieving technology. They are designed for maximum efficiency and safe operation in industrial settings. In fact, all the models available on this subpage are made of advanced L-PUR® polyurethane elastomer, so they are characterized not only by their high flexibility, which allows them to safely hit different types of sieves without risk of damage, but also by their above-average durability. Thanks to its unique design, the bar system works effectively with the vibrations of the sieve, preventing clogging of the mesh and increasing sieving efficiency.

What are the available declogging rods used for? What is their construction?

Declogging rods are specialized components used mainly in sieving systems in order to optimize the sieving process of bulk materials. Their main function is to prevent clogging of the sieve’s mesh, which is crucial in many industries that process bulk materials, such as: food, chemical and construction industries. Due to their flexibility and strength, these bars can safely impact the sieves without causing damage to them. This enables to sieve materials in a continuous and effective way.

Lubas polyurethane rods polyurethane rods consist of four components that play completely different roles in the installation.

• The A-component includes a fixing screw, a straight polyurethane element and a polyurethane cylinder, ensuring stability and durability of the structure.
• The B-component is a moving part, which consists of a three-armed polyurethane element and three polyurethane cylinders, increasing the functionality of the system.
• The C-component is a polyurethane fixing cylinder that is important for maintaining the structural integrity of the system.
• The D-element, a polyurethane separator, prevents moving parts from crossing each other, which contributes to the reliability and long-term operation of the system

Why is it worth to rely on L-PUR® polyurethane?

L-PUR® polyurethane has ranked as the best bar material for many years due to its unique properties and continuous improvement over 30 years. Thanks to the involvement of a team of chemists-technologists, L-PUR® is a specified compound that has been designed to meet the technological requirements of machinery and equipment in heavy industries.

One of the main advantages of L-PUR® is its exceptional abrasion resistance, which is superior to many traditional materials such as steel, rubber or other plastics. This feature makes it an ideal choice for applications such as
declogging rods, where heavy wear and friction are observed on a daily basis.

The L-PUR® polyurethane, from which each polyurethane rod is made, also provides protection for the parts against corrosion, which is important in environments exposed to aggressive substances or extreme conditions.

The special formulations of L-PUR® enable to obtain coatings that are resistant to a variety of chemical agents, extending its range of application. As a result, rods made from this material can be used in a wide variety of environments without fear of degradation.

L-PUR® is also designed to increase inspection intervals. This translates into lower maintenance costs and less production downtime. Its use eliminates the need for additional seals, which simplifies design and installation.

Furthermore, this material ensures quiet operation of the equipment, which is important in ensuring working comfort and compliance with noise standards. Resistance to hydrolysis, seawater, high temperatures, fungi,
microorganisms and UV radiation makes L-PUR® an extremely durable raw material that retains its properties even under the most demanding conditions. This makes it an ideal choice for the manufacture of polyurethane rods.

Is it worth to use polyurethane rods?

Urethane rods, the main representative of sieve shunning and tumbling items, are standard equipment in many sieving processes, but their use depends mainly on the specifics of the process and the requirements for quality and production efficiency.

In many industrial applications where it is crucial to ensure process continuity, the minimization of downtime and the optimization of sieving efficiency, the use of polyurethane rods is not only beneficial, but often essential. They provide effective protection against sieve mesh clogging, leading to a significant reduction in active surface area. Moreover, they increase sieving efficiency. All of this can be important for maintaining production continuity and minimizing operating costs.

There are many forms of cleaning sieves from backfilled pivots on the market, and polyurethane declogging rods are a prime example that the simplest solutions are also by far the most efficient.

What are the characteristics of each Lubas polyurethane rod?

The polyurethane rods available from Lubas stand out on the market for their unique characteristics, which combine advanced technology and high quality workmanship. Each product available on this subpage is the result of years of research and continuous development. This guarantees their unparalleled strength, abrasion resistance and long-term effectiveness in the most demanding industrial conditions.

Thanks to the use of a specialized L-PUR® polyurethane blend, these bars are not only highly flexible, but also capable of withstanding extreme loads, ensuring long lasting and trouble-free performance. Additionally, they are resistant to a range of degrading agents such as water, oils, many chemicals and extreme temperatures, making them ideal for a wide range of industrial applications.
