NORDBAK® manufactures and
markets a wide range of cost effective products which are
utilized extensively in the Mining and Industrial Sectors,
as well as the Food Processing, Sugar, Petro Chemicals and
Water Reticulation Industries.
The range of products fall into the following categories:-
- Crusher & Mill Repair Products
- Wear & Abrasion Resistant Compounds
- Coatings for Extreme Corrosion & Acid Environs
- Grouts
All Mining Houses in South Africa use a variety of our products
and most of these are supplied under contractual agreements.
Due to their diversified interests within Africa many of
these Mining Houses have a call for NORDBAK®
products in their East, West and Central African operations.
NORDBAK® also supplies various
international Mining Houses from North America, Canada, Britain
and Australia for their interests in Africa.
NORDBAK® Crusher Backing
has been found (under many controlled tests) to extend the
Liner life of Crushers and thereby reducing downtime whilst
in turn allowing increased ore throughput and improved yields.
Most of the Primary Crushers operating within South Africa
are using NORDBAK® Crusher
Backing, various grades of which are also used extensively
by the majority of mines in their Crusher operations.
Wear & Abrasive Resistant Compounds are used in a wide
range of applications ranging from the lining of Pipes, Pipe
Bends, Pumps, Valves, Cyclones, Launders, Chutes, Silo’s
and Tanks. NORDBAK® Compounds
have a natural adhesion to steel and concrete and do not allow
ingress of foreign matter between the bonded surfaces which
in turn reduces corrosion.
In tests carried out at the South African Bureau of Standards,
NORDBAK®’s Wear &
Abrasion Resistant Compounds were found in some instances
to be as much as ten (10) times more wear & abrasion resistant
than mild steel.
Experience has found that in Wear and Abrasion applications,
NORDBAK® Compounds have out-lasted
rubber by a factor of between six (6) and twelve (12) to one
(1) and in some instances as much as twentyfive (25) to one
(1).
NORDBAK® HI-Impact Pulley
Compound has been extensively tested against SANS 1669:2008
and complies with same in all aspects. In usage tests at the
major mining houses it has shown extended life, from 5 times
more than the life of rubber.

Resistant and Anti- Corrosion Coatings are single products
for one or two coat applications and do not require a Primer
or Intermediate undercoat after surface preparation.They can
