Tubular Conveyor Belt

The sidewall conveyor belt, often referred to as the steep incline conveyor belt, is specially designed for conveying bulk materials at steep angles or even in a vertical plane. The corrugated sidewall of the conveyor belt functions as a barrier to prevent materials from falling or slipping, ensuring smooth and efficient material handling even at challenging inclinations. The belt is manufactured through a secondary vulcanization process, which enhances the bonding strength between the various components, ensuring the belt’s durability and reliability over time.

The core components of the sidewall conveyor belt include the base belt, sidewalls, and cleats:

  • The base belt serves as the foundation, providing the necessary structure for the rest of the components.
  • The sidewalls are critical to the overall performance of the conveyor belt. These are integrated into the structure and run along the entire length of the belt, ensuring the containment of materials and enabling high-angle transportation.
  • The cleats come in T or TC types and are crucial for maintaining the flow of materials in high-capacity and steep-angle applications. These cleats help to elevate and move materials efficiently, reducing the risk of material slippage during transportation.

As one of the most reliable sidewall conveyor belt manufacturers, our company is able to produce belts in corrugated shapes that are capable of withstanding high pressure and preventing extreme flexing. We can also provide customized sidewall conveyor belts tailored to your specific needs, ensuring that each product meets the unique requirements of your application.

Before delivery, our sidewall conveyor belts undergo rigorous testing to ensure they possess high tensile strength, excellent abrasion resistance, and strong adhesion. Only after passing these quality checks are they delivered to customers, ensuring maximum durability and performance in real-world applications.
