Steel coil rubber saddle rubber fixing pad V-shaped rubber pad

Steel coil rubber saddle is a special tool used to support and fix steel coils. It mainly relies on the elasticity and wear resistance of rubber to play a protective and stabilizing role during the storage, transportation or processing of steel coils. The following is an introduction to its key information:

Core role

- Shock absorption protection: The rubber material can buffer the impact force when steel coils are stacked or moved, preventing the edges of the steel coils from deforming, scratching or other damages due to collision.

- Stable support: The arc-shaped design of the saddle conforms to the curvature of the steel coil, which can prevent the steel coil from rolling or tilting, enhancing the safety of storage/transportation.

- Insulating and anti-slip: Rubber itself does not conduct electricity, which can reduce the influence of static electricity. At the same time, the surface friction is large, preventing the steel coil from sliding.

Structure and Material

- Main structure: It is usually composed of a metal frame (such as carbon steel) and an outer rubber layer. The metal frame provides strength, while the rubber layer offers cushioning performance.

- Rubber type: Nitrile rubber (oil-resistant), chloroprene rubber (weather-resistant) or natural rubber are mostly used. The type is selected based on the usage environment (such as whether it comes into contact with oil stains, outdoor scenarios, etc.) and should have high elasticity, anti-aging and wear resistance.

Application scenarios

Steel storage: When steel coils are stacked on shelves or on the ground, saddles are placed under the steel coils to reduce interlayer compression damage.

- Logistics transportation: When transporting steel coils by truck or train, the saddle seats are fixed inside the carriages to prevent the steel coils from shifting and causing transportation accidents.

- Processing production line: On cold rolling, galvanizing and other production lines, it is used to support steel coil raw materials and ensure a smooth uncoiling process.

Key points for selection

- Load-bearing capacity: Select the saddle corresponding to the load based on the weight of the steel coil (such as a single saddle with a load-bearing capacity of 5 tons, 10 tons, etc.).

- Size matching: The radius of the saddle arc surface should be compatible with the diameter of the steel coil (common steel coil diameters are 1-2 meters) to avoid uneven force distribution due to insufficient contact area.

- Environmental adaptability: If used outdoors, UV-resistant rubber should be selected. In scenarios involving oil contamination, oil-resistant rubber should be chosen.

Maintenance Precautions

Regularly check whether the rubber layer is cracked or worn. If the damage is severe, it should be replaced in time to avoid direct contact of the metal frame with the steel coil.

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or contact with strong corrosive substances to prevent rubber aging and failure.
