For belt conveyor applications subject to frequent length adjustments, the Bolt Hinged fastener is easy to install – and re-install. The joint can be separated simply by removing the hinge pin. On-site installation requires hand or power tools. Our exclusive piloted bolt also simplifies installation and holds fastener plates firmly in place. For added strength and pull-out resistance, specially formed teeth penetrate deep into the belt carcass without damaging carcass fibers.Bolt Hinged Fastener Selection Guide
