Heavyweight Belt Vulcanization & Splicing Options
- Lap splices: the belt ends overlap and are bonded together.
- Finger splices: the ends are cut into interlocking fingers, which keeps the joint thin and flexible.
- Steel cable: the steel cords are laid out in a set pattern and vulcanized into the belt.
- Cold bonding: a chemical bond that cures without a heated press.
- Mechanical splices: metal fasteners that get a belt running again fastest.
The right splice depends on the belt’s construction, its tension, your pulley sizes and how long the line can be down. Tell us what you’re running and our Heavyweight Division will recommend the splice that fits.
