High Performance Underground
Conveyor Belt for Industrial Applications This advanced herringbone-patterned whole core conveyor belt is engineered for demanding underground environments, offering superior durability, flame resistance, and efficient material transport across multiple industries. Designed with precision and built to last, it serves as a reliable solution for coal mining, metallurgy, chemical processing, and more—ensuring safety, performance, and compliance with international fire safety standards. Key Features: - Flame-retardant construction using either PVC or PVG materials - Herringbone tread pattern for enhanced traction on inclines - Solid woven carcass for high tensile strength and minimal elongation - Customizable cover thickness (0.8mm–4.5mm) based on application needs - Resistance to abrasion, moisture, chemicals, and temperature variations Detailed Description: The high-performance underground conveyor belt comes in two primary types: PVC solid woven flame-resistant belts and PVG solid woven flame-resistant belts. The PVC version features uniform polyvinyl chloride covers on both sides, ideal for dry conditions on slopes up to 16 degrees. With a single-side rubber thickness of at least 0.8mm, it provides excellent wear resistance and safe operation in low-humidity settings. In contrast, the PVG variant combines nitrile rubber and PVC in its cover layers, delivering enhanced flexibility, oil resistance, and impact absorption—making it suitable for transporting wet or water-laden materials on gradients up to 20 degrees. Its thicker single-layer coverage (ranging from 1.5mm to 4.5mm) ensures long-term reliability even under heavy-duty conditions. Both types are certified for flame retardancy, meeting global industrial safety regulations such as EN 15713 and MSHA standards. Application Scenarios: In the coal mining sector, this conveyor system reduces fire hazards by minimizing static electricity buildup and preventing ignition sources during coal handling. For metallurgical operations, it efficiently transports ores, coke, sintered products, and other bulk materials through harsh underground tunnels where vibration, dust, and mechanical stress are constant challenges. Within chemical plants, the belt resists corrosive substances like acids, solvents, and alkalis, maintaining structural integrity while ensuring contamination-free transport of raw materials and finished goods. Whether deployed in deep shafts or surface facilities, these belts support continuous flow logistics without compromising operational efficiency or worker safety. User Feedback: Operators in European and North American mines report improved uptime due to reduced slippage and fewer joint failures when using properly installed hot vulcanized joints. Maintenance teams appreciate the ease of inspection and the extended service life compared to traditional steel-cord belts, particularly in humid or chemically aggressive environments. Many users highlight the belt’s ability to maintain consistent tension over time, which minimizes energy consumption and extends motor and roller lifespan. Frequently Asked Questions: What makes this belt suitable for underground use? Its flame-retardant properties, reinforced carcass design, and optimized herringbone texture allow safe operation in confined spaces where fire risks must be minimized. How does the PVC type differ from PVG in real-world performance? PVC offers cost-effective protection in dry, low-gradient applications, while PVG excels in moist or abrasive environments thanks to its hybrid rubber composition and higher thickness tolerance. Can it be used in inclined installations? Yes, both types support inclines up to 16° (PVC) and 20° (PVG), making them ideal for steep underground haulage routes. Is special installation required? Proper jointing—via mechanical fasteners, cold bonding, or hot vulcanization—is essential. Correct tensioning prevents misalignment, excessive wear, and premature failure. How often should maintenance checks occur? Regular visual inspections every 3–6 months are recommended, especially in high-dust or high-moisture zones, to ensure optimal belt health and prevent unexpected downtime.
