Belt Splicing

Hot Splicing

All belts supplied by Beltcon can be "Hot Spliced" under Workshop conditions or on Site to suit the clients requirements. "Hot Spliced" belts can be run as soon as the belt is cold to the touch, as no additional curing time is required. Beltcon also offers a higher specification splice for weigh feeder belts that conform to international standards.

Rubber Conveyor Splicing

Rubber belting is spliced with the overlap method, with every splice, extra care is taken with the preparation to ensure no damage to the carcass or covers occurs. All rubber belts can be spliced in the workshop or on site up to a maximum width of 2100mm. Beltcon has established a set of specifications for the splicing of rubber weigh feeder belts which meet international standards.

Transmission Splicing

Transmission belting is spliced by skiving or beveling the ends, often dissimilar materials are evident in the same belts and use different bonding materials, the skiving method allows for the ends to be properly mated. The bonding agents are then applied and the whole splice is inserted into a hot press under pressure, once the splice is cold the belt may be tensioned, tracked and run.
