The specification of conveyor-belt splicing is not as easy as it may seem. It requires not only understanding the relative strengths of the various designs, but also consideration of their installation techniques and tools, plus the variations available in sizes, metals and hinge pins. With all the variables involved, careful attention to detail is important. As a precaution, when requesting or ordering mechanical fasteners, double-check each order to verify that the correct sizes, metal selections and hinge-pin constructions are indicated. Also, remember to look at the wide variety of belt maintenance tools and accessories offered by most splicing manufacturers. These, too, will be part of your belt fastening system, and can do a lot to help make belt preparation, fastener installation and follow-up maintenance quicker and easier.
