Pin Latch Belt Cleaner Simplifies Service

The new Pin Latch is a tungsten carbide-tipped secondary cleaner that slides in and out for service without requiring any tools. The design features a square, tabbed mainframe with segmented blades connected by a simple pin mechanism, allowing easy access and quick blade replacement by semi-skilled personnel. The pin latch design provides adjustable tension for varying conditions, such as belt speed, material being conveyed, and belt cleaner position relative to the head pulley. It will handle belt speeds up to 1000 ft/min, and the versatile unit accommodates belt rollback. The carbide tip is acid- and abrasion-resistant, and the assembly is well suited for use on belts with mechanical splices, smoothly adapting to and riding over the splices without damaging the splice, belt, or blade.
