To fight the damaging effects of fugitive material on single-direction belts, the Torsion VPlow is engineered with a unique spring-loaded suspension system that allows the plow to rise and fall with fluctu ations in belt tension and travel. Attached with dual steel crossbars bolted to the con veyor frame a few feet from the tail pulley, the unit is secured by two heavy-duty safe ty cords. Three torsion arms system adjust independently, maintaining consistent pressure for effective cleaning in all stages of blade wear. Effective on standard tail pulleys or wing pulleys at belts speeds up to 900 fpm (46 m/sec), the easily replace able blade delivers 2 in. (5 cm) of wear and can be specified in 60 Shore A durometer nitrile rubber or heavy-duty 90 Shore A durometer urethane.
