Note: See below for splice details. Plastic Clipper splice requires longer lead times.
*Incline varies due to factors like dust, fluids and part material.

 

Belt Splicing

   

Finger Splice
All belts are available with a standard Thermoformed finger splice. This splice makes the belt continuous and is virtually undetectable. Splice bonding methods vary by belt type. Consult factory for details.

 

Plastic Clipper**
An optional plastic clipper splice is available for quick removal of belts or when conveyors are installed in tight spaces. The clipper does not protrude above the belt surface.

 

Metal Clipper**
An optional metal clipper splice is also available for quick removal of belts or when conveyors are installed in tight spaces.


** See belt charts for compatibility. Not for use with 7200/7300 Series with bottom wiper option.
Plastic and Metal Clippers are slightly thicker than base belt. Consult factory for details.

STANDARD CLEATS

* Maximum 20” (508) cleat spacing for 18” and wider conveyors with lengths greater than 7’ (2134)
** 18” and wider conveyors have a maximum length of 7’ (2134)

Base Belt Material: .059" (1.5) thick, high friction FDA approved urethane, 176˚F (80˚C) maximum part temperature.
See Specialty Belt 67 for low friction base belt material.

Note: Minimum cleat spacing is approximately 2” (50). Consult Factory.

 

Cleat Spacing

  1. Refer to Formulas below.
  2. Use formula 1 to determine the approximate number of cleats required based upon the desired cleat spacing. Since a partial cleat cannot be used, round the number of cleats up or down.
  3. Use formula 2 to get the cleat space reference for the conveyor part number.
