⚠️🔧 The Crucial Role of Capping Rubber! 🔧⚠️ Today, I want to shed light on an often-overlooked component: capping rubber installed on the camber bars of your screening machine. Recently, we encountered a situation that serves as a reminder of the importance of using high-quality capping rubber. One of our valued customers continued using their old, worn-out capping rubber, only to find that it eventually tore apart. This left their woven wire mesh unprotected, resting directly on the metal camber bars. The result? Metal-to-metal friction caused significant breakage of the wire mesh, leading to costly downtime and replacement of the mesh. 👉 Why is capping rubber essential? ✅Prevents Breakage: Capping rubber provides a critical barrier that absorbs shock and prevents the direct contact of metal surfaces, significantly reducing wear and tear on woven wire meshes. ✅Increases Equipment Efficiency: Ensuring that your wire meshes are adequately protected leads to smoother operations and enhanced performance of screening machines. ✅Saves Costs: Investing in quality capping rubber reduces the risk of equipment failure, protecting your investment in machinery and minimizing downtime and replacement costs. Don’t let old capping rubber compromise your operations! Check out the video below to see the direct impact of neglecting such an essential component. Harpscreen has a large stock of capping rubber AR2, AR3 and SM01. 🌎We ship worldwide, contact us for more info: Justine.Bollet@harpscreen.com or saleseurope@harpscreen.com #ScreeningMachines #CappingRubber #EquipmentMaintenance #Mining #Construction #Engineering #CostEfficiency #HappyCustomers
Standard practice to change out rubbers before heavy wear is evident, sometimes even prematurely depending on media lifespan. Saves breakdowns, possible material contamination when media breaks up and reduced costly media wear.

4moThis is quite common to see with side tension wire cloth. It's critical to keep those stringer capping stris on there, since once the wire scallops out those stringers, things get sharper and cut the new caps quicker every time.
