Conveyor Belt (13)
Conveyor System (2)Pipe Conveyor Belt Conveyor System These features result in a smoother, straighter splice that provides longer splice life and a truer-tracking belt.
The fastener strips are offered in a variety of lengths to accommodate standard belt widths with minimal waste.
Individual segments are joined with breakaway bridges, allowing segments to be broken off to trim the splice to any specific belt width.
These separable connections also allow new splices to conform automatically to troughing idlers.
Flexco R2 fasteners install with Flexco SRA or SRB rivets.
These are the shortest sizes of the specially designed, self-setting rivets used with heavy-duty SR fasteners.
The rivets are pre-assembled with special break-away pilot nails that penetrate the belt without damaging or weakening the belt carcass.
Because the rivets are self-setting, they install easily from the top of the belt.
This method speeds and simplifies the installation process and reduces downtime by avoiding the time-consuming hole-punching and nut/bolt assembly required with some other types of fasteners.
In contrast to belt splicing systems that require complicated machinery for installation, R2 and other Flexco rivet-attached fasteners are installed on-site with an easy-to-use, portable installation tool and a hammer.
The installation tool holds the belt end and fastener strip in precise alignment while the rivets are driven in.
The same hammer blows that set the rivets also compress the fastener plates into the belt cover.
This simultaneous action automatically maintains each increase in compression, giving the splice a tight, full-width grip that helps the R2's teeth prevent belt tension from pulling only on the rivets.
Standard material for the R2 fastener is pregalvanised, high-strength steel.
A Type-300 stainless-steel version is available for extra resistance to abrasion, acids, corrosive chemicals and magnetic attraction.
Rivets are offered in both standard and stainless steel.For more information,please visit http://www.bossgoo.com
