A sacrificial lining system for a conduit is disclosed and comprises a liner portion having a proximal end and a distal end, with the proximal end defining a proximal opening and the distal end defining a distal opening. The lining system further comprises a flange portion positioned at and being united to the proximal end of the liner portion. The flange portion surrounds the proximal opening. The distal end of the liner portion is free of any flange structure to permit the distal end to be freely insertable into and through the lumen of the conduit.

A method of lining a lumen of a conduit with a sacrificial lining system, comprising:providing a liner system having a liner portion including a perimeter wall continuous about a circumference of the liner portion, and a flange portion being positioned at and being continuously united to

I claim: 1. A method of lining a lumen of a conduit with a sacrificial lining system, comprising:providing a liner system having a liner portion including a perimeter wall continuous about a circumference of the liner portion, and a flange portion being positioned at and being continuously united to a proximal end of the liner portion, the distal end of the liner portion being free of any flange structure, the liner portion having an outer surface with a uniform diameter from the proximal end to the distal end of the liner portion, the liner portion having an inner surface with a uniform diameter from the proximal end to the distal end;inserting a distal end of the liner portion into the lumen of the conduit;detecting a degree of wear on an inner surface of the liner portion;changing an orientation of the liner portion in the conduit to present a changed wear surface; andadjusting a length of the liner portion to a length of the conduit while the liner portion is positioned in the lumen of the conduit;wherein changing the orientation includes rotating the liner portion about a longitudinal axis;wherein rotating the liner portion includes causing the rotation of the liner portion while the liner portion is positioned in the lumen of the conduit;wherein rotating the liner portion includes rotating the liner portion such that flow of a particulate material contacts a different area of an inner surface of the liner portion;wherein inserting the liner portion includes passing the distal end of the liner portion through a second end opening of a second end of the conduit so that the liner portion extends past the second end of the conduit;wherein adjusting the length includes shortening the length of the liner portion; andwherein adjusting the length includes severing a distal end section of the liner portion which protrudes out of a distal end of conduit from a proximal end section of the liner portion positioned in the lumen of the conduit.
