One of our mining clients in South America recently faced a serious challenge:
👉 Ceramic liners were detaching from their slurry pipeline, leading to frequent shutdowns and costly maintenance.
💡 Client's Situation:
The pipeline was lined with alumina ceramic tiles, operating under high-impact and fluctuating temperature conditions.
Despite proper installation, the tiles began to fall off after a few months - affecting production and raising safety concerns.
🔍 Our Technical Support:
After a detailed assessment by our team, we found that the adhesive they were using did not meet the necessary shear strength requirements for such a demanding application.
We recommended a high-performance ceramic adhesive with a tested shear strength of 18 MPa, along with guidance on surface preparation and installation techniques.
✅ Results:
Since the upgrade, the client has reported zero tile failure after more than six months of continuous operation.
The lining system is now more stable, reliable, and requires significantly less maintenance.
💬 Client's Feedback:
"Your technical support made the difference. We didn't realize shear strength was so critical - now we do."
📌 Takeaway:
Choosing the right ceramic adhesive isn't just about bonding - it's about long-term performance.
Shear strength is a key factor in ensuring your wear liner stays intact under stress, impact, and vibration.
