Rhino Linings (Chemical Resistant Coatings)

Chemical-Resistant Coatings Built for Mining’s Toughest Conditions

When you’re operating in mining, every minute counts, and so does every ounce of protection you can put between your gear and the elements. That’s where Rhino Linings’ chemical-resistant coatings step in: engineered to shrug off acids, alkalis, fuels, moisture, abrasion and more, so your equipment works longer, safer, and smarter.

What Makes Rhino’s Products Truly Chemical-Resistant

• RhinoChem 2170 is a standout: a two-component, 100 % solids, rapid-curing elastomeric lining that handles immersion, excellent corrosion resistance, and tough chemical attack, such as acetic acid up to 10 %, sulphuric acid to 50 %, sodium hydroxide to 50 %, plus bleach, salts and cleaners.

• Rhino PP1195, a pure polyurea lining, also rates high for chemical resistance.

• Heavy-duty epoxy systems like ArmaFloor 400UHS resist dilute acids, alkalis and solvents—ideal where concrete floors endure chemical spills, washdowns, traffic and moisture.

Why Mining Ops Depend on These Solutions

1. Extend Asset Life and Cut Costs
   Coatings like RhinoChem or TUFF STUFF add years of protection to chutes, tanks, haul trucks, fuel tanks and other high-wear parts. Less corrosion + less abrasion = fewer replacements.

2. Minimise Downtime
   Many Rhino Linings products cure fast. That means plant, vehicles or containment systems can be back in action with minimal interruption.

3. Comply with Safety & Environmental Standards
   Impermeable linings prevent leaks, reduce chemical spills, and help protect staff from hazardous surfaces. Ideal for bunds, tanks, wash-downs, and areas exposed to airborne or liquid chemical threats.

4. Versatility Across Substrates & Environments
   Whether steel, concrete, fibreglass or wood; extreme heat, cold, impact, or vibration, Rhino’s chemical-resistant linings conform, flex and adhere. Plus you can apply them to both fixed plant and mobile equipment.

Perfect Fits & Application Examples

• Primary & Secondary Containment: Tanks, bunds and vessels coated with RhinoChem 2170 or Rhino PP1195 to safely store or handle chemicals and fluids.

• Vehicle Protection: Fuel tanks, mudguards and chassis—areas exposed to corrosive sprays of mud, chemicals and road grime. Products like Rhino TUFF STUFF and RhinoPrime 251 protect these vulnerable zones.

• Floors & Infrastructure: Heavy duty epoxy floors (e.g. ArmaFloor 400UHS) in workshops, wash bays, plants where chemicals spill. They give seamless, easy-to-clean surfaces with excellent chemical resistance.

The Impact on Your Mine’s Bottom Line

• Reduced maintenance spend – lower frequency of repair or replacement means big savings over time.

• Less unplanned downtime – faster cures and durable protection let you keep rolling without constant interruptions.

• Safety improvements & compliance – fewer leaks, slip hazards and structural failures.

• Improved equipment performance & resale value – well-protected gear returns more, lasts longer.
