Flexco® Rivet Solid Plate Fastening System

The Flexco® Rivet Solid Plate Fastening System is engineered for maximum strength and durability in demanding conveyor applications. Its solid plate construction provides a uniform, sift-free splice that prevents material leakage, while the rivet-driven installation ensures a consistent, tight connection across the belt width.

Each fastener is cold-forged and specially formed to penetrate the belt carcass without damaging internal fibers, creating a robust, long-lasting splice. Designed to handle the toughest environments — from mining and aggregate to cement and steel — this system offers superior performance where vulcanizing isn’t practical or possible.

High Strength Rating: Designed for demanding, high-tension applications with a mechanical fastener rating from 400 to 800 PIW (70 to 140 kN/m), ensuring a secure, long-lasting splice under heavy loads.
Belt Compatibility: Fits belts from 3/16” to 15/16” (5 mm to 24 mm) thick, covering a wide range of heavy-duty conveyor types and materials.
Pulley Range: Performs smoothly with pulley diameters from 14” to 36” (350 mm to 900 mm), maintaining consistent belt flex and alignment.
Low-Profile Design: The Scalloped Edge® profile provides a smooth splice that runs cleanly through pulleys, scrapers, and other conveyor components, reducing wear and vibration.
Long Wear Life: Wide, heavy-gauge solid plates deliver exceptional durability and a sift-free splice, preventing material leakage and extending belt life in abrasive conditions.
Rivet-Driven Strength: Rivet attachment ensures maximum resistance to pull-out, maintaining strong, uniform tension across the belt joint even under impact and vibration.
Versatile Compatibility: Fully compatible with troughed belts, making it suitable for a broad range of bulk material handling systems and heavy-duty conveyor designs.

Specifications

Common Industries That Use This Product

Grain & Bulk Material Handling

Grain terminals, fertilizer plants, and feed mills rely on this fastening system to handle high volumes of bulk materials safely and efficiently. The tight, sift-free splice prevents product loss and contamination during transport. Its corrosion-resistant materials perform well in outdoor or high-moisture conditions. Operators benefit from dependable performance that keeps conveyors running during peak production seasons.

Aggregate & Cement Processing

Cement and aggregate facilities depend on this fastening system for conveyors exposed to dust, heat, and heavy wear. The solid plate design resists abrasion and maintains alignment through long production runs. The rivet attachment method creates a stable, vibration-resistant splice that extends belt life. Its rugged performance reduces downtime and keeps materials moving efficiently.

Coal & Power Generation

Power plants transporting coal, ash, or limestone rely on the Flexco® Rivet Solid Plate System for its strength and reliability. The riveted connection provides maximum resistance to pull-out and tension loss during continuous operation. The splice remains stable under temperature variations and mechanical stress. This ensures consistent performance and fewer unplanned stoppages.

Mining

In mining operations, the Flexco® Rivet Solid Plate Fastening System provides unmatched durability and splice integrity under extreme tension and load. It withstands heavy impact from crushed rock, ore, and aggregate while maintaining a tight, sift-free seal. Its rivet-driven connection ensures even load distribution and prevents splice separation. The result is reliable performance in abrasive, high-impact environments.
