Description
The sidewall conveyor belt is an advanced bulk material conveying solution specifically developed to handle steep incline and vertical transportation challenges that conventional flat conveyor belts cannot achieve. By integrating flexible corrugated rubber sidewalls securely vulcanized to both edges of a high-strength base belt, and combining them with optional molded transverse cleats, the system forms a stable and enclosed conveying channel that ensures reliable material retention throughout the entire conveying process.
This unique box-type conveying structure enables smooth and continuous transport of bulk materials from horizontal sections to inclined and fully vertical paths, with inclination angles reaching up to 90 degrees. As a result, the sidewall conveyor belt significantly improves layout flexibility and allows material handling systems to be designed within limited installation spaces.
One of the key advantages of the sidewall conveyor belt is its outstanding space-saving capability. By replacing traditional multi-stage or complex transfer systems with a single vertical or steep-angle conveyor, it effectively reduces equipment footprint, civil construction requirements, and overall system investment. At the same time, the combination of corrugated sidewalls and transverse cleats prevents material rollback, spillage, and leakage, even under high-angle conveying conditions, contributing to cleaner operation and reduced dust emissions.
The base belt is available with steel cord or high-quality EP fabric reinforcement, providing excellent tensile strength, dimensional stability, and long service life. This robust construction enables the belt to perform reliably under demanding working environments such as mining, quarrying, cement plants, power stations, and other heavy-duty industrial applications, ensuring consistent performance, high conveying efficiency, and long-term operational reliability.

FAQ
1. What are the advantages of your conveyor belts compared to other brands?
1:Targeted Design: Based on years of field experience in Saudi Arabia, we engineer our belt’s ply count and rubber grade to precisely match your application.
2:Localized Service: We provide "hands-on" technical support throughout the entire process—from selection and installation to subsequent optimization—ensuring you achieve optimal results, not just receive a belt.
3:Cost Advantage: We have our own factory, eliminating middlemen. This allows us to offer more competitive prices while guaranteeing quality. We deliver long-term, stable operation, not just a product.
2. Is your conveyor belt under warranty? How long is the warranty period?
We provide clear and fair warranty terms to ensure mutual understanding:
1:A one-year warranty is provided under normal operating conditions (covering issues like delamination and core breakage).
2:Normal wear and tear of the top and bottom cover rubber is excluded.
3:Punctures and cuts caused by external factors are not covered.
Our Hot Vulcanized Jointing Service is covered by a separate one-year warranty. (This warranty excludes issues resulting from mechanical damage, human error, or improper maintenance.)
3. How is the belt splicing handled? Do you provide on-site service?
The splice is the "lifeline" of any conveyor belt, and we treat it with utmost importance. We offer:
1:Professional Hot Vulcanized Splicing Service: Our engineer team uses professional equipment to ensure a splice efficiency of over 90%, achieving a strength nearly equal to the belt itself.
2:On-site Guidance & Execution: We don't just advise; we can dispatch our engineers to your site to ensure the splice is done correctly the first time, preventing the risk of future breakages during operation.
4. What is the service life of the belt?
The service life of a conveyor belt depends on various factors, including material abrasiveness, load capacity, operating environment, and maintenance standards.
Based on our experience serving similar clients in Saudi Arabia, under normal conditions and with proper maintenance, our products are typically designed to last 1-2 years.
Most importantly, through accurate selection and regular maintenance tracking services, we proactively help you avoid abnormal wear, striving to maximize the product's service life and thereby reduce your cost per ton conveyed.
5. What is your response if we encounter a problem with the belt?
We have established a localized rapid response mechanism in Saudi Arabia:
1:Technical Consultation: For any operational queries, we provide remote technical support within 24 hours.
2:Emergency Breakdowns: For critical issues causing downtime, we commit to providing a clear on-site support arrival time and establishing an emergency communication channel.
3:Spare Parts Support: We maintain a local spare parts stock in Saudi Arabia to ensure the rapid supply of critical components.
Our goal is to become your long-term partner, not just a one-time supplier. Therefore, resolving issues quickly is in our mutual interest.
