Customised Fenaplast

Fenoplast Hi-Vis

SPECIAL CARCASS PROPERTIES

Fenaplast carcass designs can be customised to include one or more of the following features

  • increased fastener holding efficiency for high speed/tonnage applications
  • improved lateral stability to further enhance resistance to longitudinal splitting on high capacity/deep trough conveyors
  • high tear and rip resistance for arduous applications where belts are difficult to align and maintain
  • additional carcass mass to allow belts to negotiate small radius catenary curves which would normally require steel cord belt (to prevent the belt lifting off the structure under no load conditions)
  • the ability to operate at temperatures well in excess of 90°C (the normal limit for standard constructions)
  • improved edge wear protection for extensible and similar applications

FENAPLAST HI-VIS

Fenaplast High Visibility (Hi-Vis) yellow covered belting provides improved safety and inspection capabilities, particularly on underground conveyors. The enhanced visibility of the yellow covers significantly improves the sighting of the conveyor's moving parts and structure against the belt, allowing easier inspection and making the conveyor itself more conspicuous. In use in the UK, Scandinavia and Canada, the advantages of Hi-Vis belting have been recognised by engineers as a useful feature in improving safety around conveyors - always an area of concern.

Fenaplast Hi-Vis belting is a product innovation driven by the need for improved safety and is especially advantageous on man-riding conveyors, making the belt edges and conveyor moving parts more obvious to the rider.

Fenaplast belting is also available in a range of other colours to assist in belt identification.

FENAPLAST SPECIAL COVERS

Certain applications require conveyor belts with special properties and our highly experienced in-house research and development team has developed a range of PVC compounds for Fenaplast covers, all of which are available with fire-resistant properties. Our range of PVC covers include

  • hard, highly abrasion resistant covers for conveying underground in high ambient temperatures
  • thick covers with an easily cleaned surface for handling wet, sticky materials such as chalk, clay and lignite
  • high coefficient of friction covers for high grip on pulleys and for load retention on inclines
  • covers suitable for low temperature environments
  • special elevator belt covers
