Rubber-Lined Tanks & Pipeline

Corrosion protection is an important issue in chemical processing, water treatment, mining, and other industries with aggressive process media.

Rubber-lined equipment can act as a protective barrier between the base metal and the process medium for suitable applications.

ASEFS India provides rubber-lined tanks and pipelines for industrial applications involving:

Chemical Processing
Water Treatment
Wastewater Treatment
Mining
Mineral Processing
Industrial Chemical Handling

The correct lining system is determined by the process medium, concentration, temperature, operating conditions, and the required service life.

Dish Ends and Dished Heads

Dished ends, or dish heads, are manufactured parts used in pressure vessels and industrial tanks.

The design and manufacture of these are dependent on:

Diameter of Vessel
Material Type

Thickness:

Design constraints
Operating Temperatures
Headform
Requirements for Welding
Design Specifications Applicable

Accurate forming and dimensional inspection of the part are critical, as it will be used in the assembly of the vessel or tank.
