The extruded stoneware Terraklinker stands out as an exceptional solution for industrial floors exposed to heavy traffic and extreme conditions. Opting for this stoneware offers substantial benefits due to its outstanding mechanical and chemical properties.
From a mechanical perspective, Terraklinker boasts a notable hardness of 8 on the Mohs scale and a bending strength surpassing 30 N/mm2. Additionally, it demonstrates high resistance to impact, wear, and abrasion (less than 180 mm3), along with an impressive ability to withstand thermal shocks. These characteristics make it a robust and enduring choice for demanding industrial environments.
Moreover, this stoneware exhibits excellent resistance to acids and bases, capable of withstanding all acids except hydrofluoric acid and its derivatives. This chemical resistance makes it suitable for environments where exposure to corrosive substances is a constant concern.
Terraklinker complies with standard UNE-EN ISO 10545-6 (< 180 mm3) – Resistance to deep abrasion
Terraklinker meets the requirements of the standard UNE-ENV 12633:2003 with class 3 (Spanish Technical Building Code)
Terraklinker gets the classification R12 according to standard DIN 51130 – Very good slip resistance according to the ramp method with standardized footwear and oil interposition
Terraklinker complies with standard UNE-EN ISO 10545-13 – Resistance to acids and bases
Terraklinker's inherent non-slip property not only significantly enhances safety in transit areas but also excels on inclined or moisture-exposed surfaces. This feature positions it as the optimal choice for surroundings near pools and specialized installations, where actively preventing slips and falls becomes essential.
For industrial floorings requiring even greater resistance, Terraklinker provides the option of thickened tiles. While the standard thickness is 15 mm, ceramics with a thickness of 23 mm are supplied for floors regularly bearing heavy machinery or forklifts.
The remarkable technical qualities of extruded stoneware Terraklinker are crucial for implementing a resilient and durable material in projects with high demands. Its unique combination of mechanical, chemical, and non-slip resistance makes it a versatile and reliable option for industrial floors seeking superior performance.
