Our vulcanising division specialises in creating permanent, high-tensile belt joints that outperform the original
factory splice. Using advanced chemical compounds and state-of-the-art hydraulic presses, we deliver seamless hot
and cold vulcanised joints for steel cord, multi-ply textile, and speciality belting across every major industry
sector.
A compromised splice is the single biggest threat to conveyor uptime. When a joint fails mid-shift, the knock-on
costs — lost tonnage, idle labour, missed dispatch windows — compound by the hour. Our master engineers eliminate
that risk at source, engineering every joint to exceed OEM tensile specifications and withstand the most punishing
operational loads.
Hot vulcanising remains the gold standard for permanent belt jointing. Our technicians deploy fully calibrated press
equipment on-site, applying precise temperature and pressure profiles tailored to your exact belt specification. The
result is a homogeneous, full-strength joint indistinguishable from the parent belt — ideal for high-tension,
high-speed, and heavy-load conveyor systems.
Our Vulcanising Capabilities
- Steel Cord Splicing: Full-width hot press splicing for heavy-duty mining, quarrying, and
bulk handling applications.- Multi-Ply Textile Jointing: Finger and step splices across all standard EP and PN belt
constructions.- Cold Vulcanising: Rapid-cure chemical bonding for time-critical repairs and lower-tension
systems.- On-Site & Workshop: Fully mobile press units for on-site splicing, or workshop
facilities for pre-fabricated joints.
When downtime windows are tight, cold vulcanising delivers a robust, permanent bond without the extended cure times
of hot pressing. Our cold splice kits utilise two-part adhesive systems specifically formulated for the belt
compound in question, providing joint strengths that comfortably exceed mechanical fastener ratings. We carry
comprehensive stock of cold splice materials to ensure same-day response capability.
Every completed splice is subject to rigorous visual and dimensional inspection before the belt is returned to
service. We document joint geometry, cure parameters, and adhesion test results as standard, giving you a full audit
trail and the confidence that your belt system is operating at peak integrity.
