Splicing Endless Conveyor Belt

How to splice the endless conveyor belt well is one of the problems we meet during our daily work. Before splicing, there are some factors we need to consider: the belt's construction, strength, usage, and joint angle.

Lightweight plied conveyor belt splicing options

• Finger splice - Mainly used in thermoplastic belts. With high strength and flexibility, it helps to keep a clean and hygienic belt.
• Finger over finger - If the finger splice can't achieve the best splicing effect, the finger over the finger will be a better choice. A double layer of fingers increases the splicing area so that the splicing strength of the belt also be increased. 
• Skive splice - Usually, it is used in splicing thermoplastic and rubber belts. It's available for the skive splice with hot and cold glue.
