For years, severe abrasive wear present in sugar mills have resulted in costly repairs and lengthy maintenance standstills. Two areas where this is particularly apparent are; Shredder grates (the metal casing used around the rotating hammers which crush the cane) and on the Elevator Rake Pads, which are highlighted later on in this article. A…
Material FEROFORM T814 Overview Tenmats distribution partner in Spain – Sintemar – conducted materials tests with various end users to determine which materials were best suited for this application. Tests revealed that Tenmat’s Ferform T814 performed the best. Real Life Testing A first prototype version of the system will be built in general dimensions scaled…
Here at Tenmat we manufacture a wide range of hot gas filter elements, which are designed to remove particulates, heavy metals, furans, nitrogen oxides, acids and dioxins from gasses at temperatures and efficiencies higher than those achievable with a conventional system. We can achieve this due to our unique non-ceramic refractory materials and inorganic bonds,…
Fitting the correctly tested and proven “loft covers” to downlights makes simple sense in both energy efficiency and safety terms, the common ad hoc use of “upside down plant pots” has been shown to be highly dangerous, Rupert Coggon of Tenmat Ltd discusses the dilemma. Recessed halogen downlights create large amounts of heat energy which…
Feroform F44 is a specialist formulation which uses an abrasion-resistant glass fibre to reinforce a temperature resistant phenolic resin, this provides a better vacuum generation from the pump and a more stable vacuum level. Feroform F44 vanes are suitable for use in high-speed, oil-flooded, vacuum pumps, and is considered to be future proofed for the…
Tenmat is delighted to announce the newest addition to their high temperature boards, the Firefly H1000 is a high strength calcium silicate based material, which is designed to meet even higher temperatures that the other, world renowned, engineering boards available from Tenmat. When compared to the other high density calcium silicate boards the H1000 offers…
Using Ferosafe Anti-cutting Technology, Tenmat have produced one of the most secure container lock boxes in the world, which provides a high level of resistance against angle grinders and carbide drills during theft attempts. In tests, the Ferosafe Lock Box has shown to resist more than 10 grinding discs and more than a full battery…
What is Ferobide? Ferobide is a weldable tungsten carbide composite wear plate. It is one of the world’s hardest weldable materials, made in the UK. Ferobide combines high abrasion-resistance with an easy weld installation. Through years of field testing, Ferobide has been proven to save time and money. How easy is it to weld Ferobide?…
How long has Tenmat UK been supporting the apprenticeship programme? Tenmat have been supporting an apprenticeship program in various ways for at least 20 years at their HQ in Trafford Park, Manchester, UK. Typically, how many apprentices does Tenmat UK support each year? Each year is different dependant on need and applicants, but it averages…
Tenmat material is used to improve rotation performance of lighting towers whilst also reducing (manufacture) costs by reducing the number of components needed to carry loads. One single Railko washer does the same job as several larger nylon parts. Railko NF21 washers are installed in-between the two mating plates of the axial rotation joint. Railko…
