Rubber materials vary widely in durometer (hardness), elasticity, chemical resistance, and wear performance. With decades of real-world application experience, our USI field teams understand how to select and install the right rubber compound or composite to match your operating conditions. Whether you’re dealing with sharp, heavy rock, corrosive slurries, or high-velocity flow, USI can customize a lining solution that solves your unique wear challenges and delivers reliable, long-term protection.

USI also offers custom-cut rubber kits and materials for customers who prefer to install the solutions themselves. These self-install options include all necessary materials, adhesives, and instructions—backed by our technical support—allowing maintenance teams to complete installs on their own schedule.

In demanding mining applications such as gold, lithium, and rare earth element processing, chemical exposure and corrosive slurries can rapidly degrade metal tanks and containment vessels. The USI team offers specialized rubber lining services to protect tanks, sumps, and chemical vessels from corrosion, erosion, and chemical attack.

USI provides:

> New rubber lining installation for tanks, process vessels, and secondary containment

> Field repairs and re-lining of worn or damaged linings

> Customized solutions for tank interiors, including seams, nozzles, and agitation zones

> Use of chemically resistant rubber compounds tailored to harsh processing environments

Rubber tank linings are a proven, cost-effective way to extend tank life, reduce maintenance costs, and improve operational safety in chemically aggressive applications. Our USI team is equipped to perform on-site lining and repairs with minimal disruption to your operation, or we can handle new installations in our facility. At USI, we work with a wide range of rubber compounds including Rema Tip Top’s high-performance linings engineered for acidic, caustic, and abrasive conditions common in hydrometallurgical processing and battery mineral refining.
