Resumo

The ASTM G 65 dry-sand rubber wheel test is a popular low-stress abrasion test in the USA. It uses coarse silica sand as the abradant and this abradant is thought to simulate the kind of abrasion that occurs in mining and agriculture. The sand is forced against the test specimen with a chlorobutyl rubber wheel. The wheel wears and requires periodic replacement. However, in 2008 the only USA supplier of these wheels stopped making them, A search was launched to find a new supplier, but concurrent with this search this study was conducted to identify a lower-cost and more available rubber to replace the chlorobutyl rubber. This paper describes tests of four candidate replacement rubbers. Wheels were made from these rubbers and the ASTM G 65 test was performed on a reference material with these rubbers. The candidate rubbers did not perform the same as the chlorobutyl rubber and tests were performed to explain these results.
