FLEXCO CONVEYOR BELT SOLUTIONS – Fast, Reliable & Built to Last
At Indflex, we bring you Flexco conveyor belt systems designed for speed, strength, and simplicity. From Flexco belt fasteners to splicing tools, our solutions help reduce downtime, simplify repairs, and improve overall productivity. Whether you’re in mining, food processing, or logistics, Flexco’s belt maintenance systems give you maximum uptime with minimal fuss. About Mechanical Belt Fastening Mechanical belt fastening uses strong, durable fasteners—also known as conveyor belt lacing—to join open-end belts. Unlike vulcanizing, which is time-consuming and equipment-heavy, this method is fast, affordable, and easy to install. We provide both the tools and training so clients can perform the fastening in-house, without needing external support.
MECHANICAL BELT FASTENERS VS. VULCANIZATION
Mechanical Fastening:
Uses metal hinges or plates for a durable, quick splice. Requires minimal tools and downtime.
Vulcanization:
A heat or chemical process that demands skilled labor, precision, and extended machine shutdowns.
Flexco mechanical systems deliver strength and efficiency while keeping operations moving.
HEAVY-DUTY BELT FASTENER TYPES
Ideal for mining, cement, and aggregate industries:
Hinged Plate Fasteners – Great for small pulleys, joined using pins.
Solid Plate Fasteners – Ideal for large pulleys and sift-free splicing. Installed with bolts, rivets, or staples.
Available in multiple metals to suit any rugged application.
LIGHT-DUTY BELT FASTENER TYPES
Best for agriculture, laundry, food processing, and parcel handling:
Hook and lacing styles
Made from plastic, metal, or food-grade materials
Simple hand tool or machine installation
Choose the system that suits your belt and industry requirements.
