Hinged Fasteners
Rivet Hinged Fasteners
Rivet Hinged Fastening System is ideal for use on rubber-plied and PVC solid woven belting and for worn belts unfit for vulcanized splices, delivering performance and long life with easy installation.
Features of Rivet Hinged Fastening System
Strong Connection
Options like the bolt-hinged fasteners are fasteners well suited to the connection of belt ends most securely.
Flexible Design
The operational feature presents more effortless motion of the belt without adversely affecting the fastener.
Durable Materials
Most of these fasteners are manufactured from quality materials in a bid to handle the conditions in rough environments and high loads.
Easy Installation
They are planned for fast and straightforward installation, meaning only trivial interventions are required.
Applications
Hinged fasteners are universal in industries where the usage of conveyor belts is highly significant. They can be found in:
Mining and Quarrying
Moving huge loads, such as providing the rocks and minerals in specific automobile applications.
Recycling
A conveyor system that transports various forms of generated waste products.
Manufacturing
Popular in assembly line requirements since they allow flexibility and strength.
Hinged Fasteners Installation Tools
Before we dive into the full details of the Bolt Hinged Fastening System and the Bolt Hinged Fasteners, let’s look at how to install hinged fasteners properly. Here are the primary tools required:
Belt Punch
This extended into the belt for use when creating holes to fix the bolts that hold the fasteners later.
Fastener Installation Tool
They assist in fixing the fasteners in position to the belt. They are available in various dimensions as a way of being compatible with the fastener kind.
Hammer or Mallet
A hammer can also be used or rather a rubber mallet to force the bolts through the belt and get a good snap on them.
Wrench or Socket Set
These are important for subsequent nut and bolt tightening to confirm the fastener is engaging correctly.
Belt Clamp
A belt clamp is used in conveyor belt installation to confirm that the belt is not moving when fastened.
Power or hand rivet driving
Some hinged fasteners might need the application of rivets, and a rivet driver is a tool for doing this.
