Pulley lagging is the layer of material which is bonded to the shell of a Conveyor Pulley. It's function is to protect the shell from damage, increase friction with the Conveyor Belt and dispense water off the Pulley. Plain rubber lagging is generally used on Non-Drive Pulleys. This variation offers greater traction for the Conveyor Belt without excessively increasing friction which could cause the belt to wear faster. Diamond grooved rubber lagging is generally applied to Pulleys which require more fiction to the Conveyor Belt. The diamond grooves are more flexible when compared to plain rubber. The gaps in the rubber allows the lagging extra room to bend and move with the conveyor belt. The added flexibility allows the rubber to keep contact with the same section of Conveyor Belt and helps reduce belt slippage. Another advantage to diamond grooved rubber lagging is it sheds water off the Pulley to further assist with belt slippage and material build up.
Skirting rubber is a general purpose rubber used mainly in the mining industry as a side skirt on conveyor belt Systems to prevent the materials falling down. It is available in full width slabs up to 2000 mm wide and also pre-cut skirting strips. The rubber is also used where a flexible, but abrasive resistant seal is required.
SR 60
A general purpose grade of natural rubber used for many quarrying and mining applications in dust and spillage control.
SR 40-50
A softer grade natural rubber, with good tensile and elongations properties, it is ideally suited for conveyor skirting applications where belting wear is of concern.
