Crumb Rubber

Crumb rubber is made by reducing scrap tires into small, uniform granules. Inherent reinforcing materials, such as steel and fiber, are removed, along with other types of inert contaminants, such as dust, glass or rock.

Saraswathi Rubbers has the nationwide capacity to produce more than 72600 Tonnes of crumb rubber annually for a wide variety of commercial applications.

  • We use the ambient mechanical grinding method.
  • In ambient mechanical grinding process, the breaking up of a scrap tire happens at or above normal room temperature. Ambient grinding is a multi-step technology and uses whole or pre-treated car or truck tires in the form of shred or chips, or sidewalls or treads. The rubbers, metals and textiles are sequentially separated out. Tires are passed through a shredder, which breaks the tires into chips.
  • The chips are fed into a granulator that breaks them into small pieces while removing steel and fiber in the process. Any remaining steel is removed magnetically and fiber through a combination of shaking screens and wind sifters. Finer rubber particles can be obtained through further grinding in secondary granulators and high-speed rotary mills.
  • Ambient grinding is the production process used by the majority of crumb producers. The machines most commonly used for fine grinding in ambient plants are:
    • Secondary granulators
    • High speed rotary mills
    • Extruders or screw presses
    • Cracker mills

Crumb rubber powder 40 mesh

Mesh refers to material that has been sized by passing through a screen with a given number of holes per inch (25.4 mm) distant. For example, 40 mesh crumb rubber Powder has passed through a screen with 40 holes per inch resulting in rubber granulate that is slightly less than 1/40th of an inch. The exact size will depend on the size of wire used in the screen.

Crumb Rubber Granules

Crumb Rubber Granules  is recycled rubber produced from automotive and truck scrap tires. During the recycling process, steel and tire cord (fluff) are removed, leaving tire rubber with a granular consistency. Continued processing with a granulator or cracker mill, possibly with the aid of cryogenics or by mechanical means, reduces the size of the particles further. The particles are sized and classified based on various criteria including color (black only or black and white). The granulate is sized by passing through a screen, the size based on a dimension (1/4 inch) or mesh (holes per inch : 10, 20, etc.). Crumb rubber is often used in artificial turf as cushioning
