In heavy-duty applications like coal, cement, mining, and aggregate, there are two main belt fastener types: Hinged Plate and Solid Plate. Hinged plate fasteners, often used with small pulleys, are installed into each end of the belt and then joined together and held in place with a pin. Solid plate fasteners consist of one plate that is installed into both ends of the belt and fastened together. Solid plate fasteners are used with larger pulleys and for applications that require a sift-free splice. These fasteners are installed into the belt using bolts, rivets, or staples (depending on belt type and application) and are available in a variaty of material

• Skiving – Belt skivers remove the top cover of conveyor belts for installation of recessed splices in a safer manner than using knives by using and enclosed blade.

The easy to use Aluminum MSRT
tool now complements our Flexco®

in harsh working environments
where heavy splicing equipment has
to be moved on a regular basis.

Belt cutters minimize the danger of accidental injury during the belt cutting process, providing a safer, faster, and more accurate option for cutting a belt than a utility knife.

• Extension legs can be used in two positions for higher or lower placement
• Works with standard CEMA and common underground conveyor structure and idler types

Precleaners are belt cleaners that are designed to scrape material off the conveyor belt. Precleaners are mounted to the head pulley, below the material flow. They are ideal for removing large pieces of material – typically about 60-70 percent of initial carryback. Flexco precleaners are available in a variety of widths and blade types that can tackle even the toughest materials.

Secondary cleaners are belt cleaners that are built to scrape materials left on the belt beyond the head pulley. Secondary cleaners are located just past where the belt leave the head pulley, and anywhere else down the beltline. Secondary cleaners are especially good at removing fines and can increase cleaning efficiency to more than 90 percent. Flexco secondary cleaners handle a variety of applications, with polyurethane, carbide, and brush options available.
