FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

 

How do you join the conveyor belt

Belt splicing for conveyor belt maintenance can make use of two methods to replace the removed damaged part of the conveyor belt: mechanical and vulcanised.

The mechanical method makes use of either hinged fasteners, solid plate segments or flexible matrix plate splicers. The vulcanised method makes use of temperature and pressure to connect the two ends of the existing conveyor belt to the replaced section and makes use of either hot or cold vulcanisation.

Truco’s belt splicing solution, TruSplice, will require the mechanical method for installation.

Does Truco offer TruSplice at its premises or on the customer’s site?

Truco delivers Fexol and TruSplice to its customers’ doors, enabling the client to conduct their own conveyor belt repairs, reducing costs and downtime.

How do I know which rubber belt repair solution to purchase?

Although Flexsol is the most cost-efficient conveyor belt repair solution, it should ideally be used for small to medium tears and holes where TruSplice has been recommended as the ideal solution for medium to large tears and repairs.
