Henan Liwei Industry Co., Ltd., a China-based manufacturer established in 1988, brings its proven anti-corrosion rubber-lined pipe technology to South Africa's mining and industrial sectors. With a workforce of 200–300 employees and a reputation as a patent demonstration enterprise focused on scientific and technological innovation, the company engineers pipelines that reliably resist medium-level corrosion while withstanding the abrasive, high-flow conditions typical of mining and industrial processing.
Liwei's rubber-lined steel pipes combine a strong steel outer shell with a specially formulated rubber inner lining. Available in diameters from DN25 to DN2000, this steel-and-rubber composite construction protects the pipe wall from direct contact with aggressive slurries, process water, and chemical solutions — extending service life and cutting total operating costs.
| Application | Media | Advantage |
|---|---|---|
| Mining slurry transport | Abrasive, mildly acidic slurry | Impact and wear resistance |
| Tailings and effluent lines | Wastewater with solids | Abrasion and corrosion resistance |
| Process water lines | Treated or acidic water | Corrosion protection |
| Chemical dosing systems | Moderate chemical solutions | Chemical compatibility |
South Africa's mining sector exposes pipelines to abrasive ores, variable pH process water, and high flow velocities. Liwei's rubber-lined pipes are engineered to perform reliably in these environments, offering a robust alternative to unlined steel and a cost-effective option compared to expensive alloy piping. The company already serves mining and metallurgy clients alongside water treatment, petrochemical, power generation, marine, and construction industries, with 20%–30% of output exported to international markets.
By selecting the appropriate rubber compound for the specific media and operating temperature, operators can achieve long, dependable service even in complex processing circuits. This flexibility makes Liwei's rubber-lined pipes a versatile choice across gold, platinum, coal, and base metal operations, as well as general industrial plants.
Every Liwei pipeline is backed by a one-year warranty with "repair, replacement, and return" guarantees, plus lifetime technical support thereafter. The company provides responsive after-sales service to help customers in South Africa keep their operations running smoothly.
For mining and industrial operators across South Africa facing medium corrosion challenges, Henan Liwei's rubber-lined pipes deliver the durability, reliability, and cost efficiency needed to keep production flowing — backed by decades of manufacturing expertise and responsive after-sales support.
