Grain Chute Abrasion Protection

Protect Your Grain Chutes with SANI-TRED®: Durable and Long-Lasting Abrasion Protection

Grain chutes are an essential part of grain storage and handling systems, ensuring smooth transfer and transport of grain. However, these chutes are exposed to continuous abrasion from grain flow, leading to wear and tear over time. Traditional coatings and protection methods often fail to provide long-term durability. Enter SANI-TRED®, a cutting-edge solution for grain chute abrasion protection that offers unparalleled strength, flexibility, and durability.

SANI-TRED®: The Superior Solution for Grain Chute Abrasion Protection

SANI-TRED® isn’t just another coating—it’s a comprehensive protective system engineered to withstand the most demanding conditions. By creating a permanent, flexible, and abrasion-resistant coating, SANI-TRED® ensures that your grain chutes remain functional and resilient, even under heavy use.

Key Benefits of SANI-TRED® for Grain Chutes:

  1. Abrasion Resistance: Grain chutes endure constant friction from grain movement, leading to surface degradation. SANI-TRED® provides a protective layer that withstands the abrasive forces of grain flow, extending the life of your chutes and reducing maintenance costs.
  2. Flexibility and Durability: Unlike rigid coatings that crack or wear out under constant stress, SANI-TRED® remains flexible. Its ability to expand and contract with the metal or concrete substrate ensures that the coating doesn’t crack, even in extreme conditions. This flexibility is critical for handling the temperature variations and heavy loads that grain chutes face daily.
  3. Corrosion Prevention: Grain chutes are often exposed to moisture, leading to rust and corrosion. SANI-TRED® is waterproof and corrosion-resistant, creating a protective barrier that prevents rust from forming. This ensures your grain chutes remain intact and functional for longer periods.
  4. Easy Application: Whether you're installing new grain chutes or repairing existing ones, SANI-TRED® can be applied easily by professionals or as a DIY solution. Its user-friendly application process, combined with its fast-curing nature, allows you to get your grain chute back in operation with minimal downtime.
  5. Versatility: SANI-TRED® is designed for a wide range of surfaces, including concrete, metal, and other substrates. This versatility makes it the perfect solution for grain chute abrasion protection, no matter the material or configuration of your system.
The SANI-TRED® Process for Grain Chute Protection

Achieving durable grain chute abrasion protection with SANI-TRED® is a simple, yet effective process:

Step 1: Surface Preparation

The surface of your grain chute must be clean, dry, and free of any debris or contaminants. Remove any old coatings, rust, or grime to ensure maximum adhesion of the SANI-TRED® coating.

Step 2: Apply PermaFlex

SANI-TRED® PermaFlex serves as both a primer and topcoat. This liquid rubber penetrates deeply into the pores of the surface, creating a strong, flexible bond that forms the foundation of the protective system.

Step 3: Apply LRB (Liquid Rubber Base) for Added Thickness

For areas prone to heavy abrasion, SANI-TRED® LRB can be applied to increase thickness and protection. This liquid rubber base cures to a durable, flexible finish that can withstand even the harshest conditions.

Step 4: Final Inspection and Curing

Once applied, SANI-TRED® cures to a tack-free finish. A final inspection ensures that the coating is evenly applied and any touch-ups are made, guaranteeing a complete protective barrier.
