The conveyor belt skiver is a safe and easy way of removing/recessing the conveyor belt covers for the installation of mechanical fasteners.

It is battery-operated (18-volt) with dual-acting tungsten carbide blades that accurately skives the rubber off the surface of the conveyor belt. A skived conveyor belt provides for a stronger and longer conveyor belt splice life and the lower profile helps with belt cleaner performance. The conveyor belt skiver comes as a kit, complete with a battery charger, two batteries, and a set of tungsten carbide replacement blades, all in a sturdy zippered canvas bag.
