Mining

Mining

Mines are among the harshest, most unforgiving work environments. Vehicles and facilities are constantly exposed to the effects of corrosion, abrasion, and constant impact.

All of this abuse takes a damaging toll on unprotected mining equipment. The result is reduced service life, increased downtime and high maintenance costs. Spray-on polyurethane and polyurea coatings from Rhino Linings® will help protect a mine's equipment and improve its operating efficiency.
