Anti-wear elbows for pneumatic conveying systems
In pneumatic conveying systems, traditional elbows often wear out quickly due to the abrasive nature of transported materials. This leads to frequent replacements, downtime, and increased maintenance costs.
Minimizes wear and tear in conveying systems
The EXTRABEND by WAMGROUP is an anti-wear elbow designed specifically for pneumatic conveying systems. Made from a one-piece SINT engineering polymer cast, it features a special geometry that creates a dead zone at the point of diversion. This reduces wear by generating internal turbulence, thus minimizing the impact on the elbow. The elasticity of the SINT material ensures that the transported material is conveyed without particle breakdown, grinding, or jamming. Furthermore, the elbow is lightweight and durable, making it easy to install and maintain. Available in different qualities of SINT for handling various materials such as plastic pellets, granules, sand, or fine and abrasive powders, the EXTRABEND is suitable for a wide range of applications. Its patented design offers greater resistance to wear compared to traditional steel pipe elbows and is ideal for both vacuum and positive pressure conveying systems.
