Composite Rubber Filter Plates

Key Features

High-Quality Materials

Manufactured from chloroprene rubber paired with a durable steel framework for exceptional stability.

Superior Sealing Performance

Ensures tight seals to prevent leakage and maintain optimal pressure during filtration.

Enhanced Strength & Durability

Offers high mechanical strength with resistance to acids, alkalis, extreme temperatures, and aging.

Extended Service Life

Designed for over 5 years of use, reducing the need for frequent replacements.

Cost-Effective Maintenance

Allows for multiple re-gluing cycles, lowering overall maintenance costs.

Improved Filtration Efficiency

The composite design not only maintains the sealing integrity of the rubber plate but also enhances the filtration performance of the polypropylene diaphragm plate, resulting in lower filter cake moisture.

Applications

Industry Applications of Composite Rubber Filter Plates

Chemical processing

Offers high mechanical strength with resistance to acids, alkalis, extreme temperatures, and aging.

Mining & tailings

Rubber-faced plates absorb impact and resist wear in coarse, high-solids tailings duty, where standard PP faces would wear prematurely.

Manufacturing

Plate Manufacturing at Loway

Plate packs, cloth fitting and press assembly are handled in our own workshop, so replacements are matched to the drawing or sample you send rather than to a catalogue number.

Frequently Asked Questions About Composite Rubber Filter Plates

Q1: Why a rubber-faced plate instead of solid polypropylene?

The chloroprene rubber face gives an elastic, tight seal against the mating plate, while the internal steel frame carries the mechanical load. This combination suits abrasive slurries and duties where the pack is opened frequently.

Q2: What pressure, temperature and chemistry can they take?

Working pressure goes up to 16 bar, temperature from -10°C to 80°C, and chemical resistance covers pH 2 to 12.

Q3: How long do they last, and can they be repaired?

Expected service life is over 5 years under normal operating conditions. The rubber face can be re-glued multiple times, which keeps replacement costs down compared with swapping a whole plate.

Q4: What is the composite diaphragm version for?

It combines the sealing of the rubber plate with the pressing performance of a reinforced polypropylene diaphragm. Squeezing the diaphragm after the feed phase lowers final cake moisture.

Q5: How are they manufactured?

By composite molding and vulcanization: the chloroprene rubber is bonded to the steel framework in one process, so face and core stay joined through repeated pressure cycles.
