Flexco 190E Box Quick-Fit Bolt Solid Steel Plate Fastener for Belting

Description

Product Overview

The Flexco 190E Box Quick-Fit Bolt Solid Steel Plate Fastener is a purpose‑engineered solution designed to meet the rigorous demands of modern material handling systems. Constructed from high‑tensile solid steel, each fastener plate delivers exceptional strength while resisting corrosion and wear in harsh environments. The fastener includes a piloted bolt with a tapered tip that penetrates the belt carcass, distributing splice tension evenly across the full width of the belt. Dimensions of the assembled unit are 6 × 6 × 5 inches and it weighs 4.17 lb, making it compact enough for easy handling yet robust enough to support belts up to 7/16 inches thick. The product is compatible with a wide range of belt materials, including rubber, urethane, polyurethane, and neoprene, and is suitable for belt thicknesses ranging from 3/19 inches to 7/16 inches. Minimum pulley diameter is 10 inches, ensuring reliable performance across a variety of conveyor configurations. The 25‑set pre‑assembled bottom plates are supplied ready for installation, reducing downtime and simplifying field service.

Usage

This fastener excels in applications where belts transport abrasive or heavy materials such as sand, gravel, crushed stone, grain, coal, cement, and salt. Its design accommodates high‑tension splicing, making it ideal for long‑run conveyors in mining, construction, agriculture, and bulk material processing facilities. The quick‑fit bolt system enables technicians to install or replace splices on‑site using portable hand tools or power tools, minimizing production interruptions. Because the specially formed teeth engage deep within the belt carcass without damaging the reinforcing fibers, the fastener maintains belt integrity even after repeated cycles of loading and unloading. The product’s versatility also supports use on belts with varying surface profiles, including smooth, ribbed, and textured designs, ensuring consistent performance regardless of belt type. Operators benefit from the fastener’s ability to handle temperature extremes and exposure to chemicals, thanks to the solid steel construction and protective coating that resist oxidation and degradation.
