SureGrip™ Belt Clamps
Summary
Created for maximum grip, SureGrip™; from Almex offers exceptional belt clamping for all types of conveyor belt maintenance in a variety of working conditions. SureGrip™ is constructed from high grade steel components that are light in weight, conducive for easy transportation and assembly.
SureGrip™ is available in three sizes, designed to meet the W.L.L. (Work Load Limit) of various conveyor systems. Offered in Mark 1, Mark 2 and Mark 3 versions (at three, six and seven tonne thresholds, respectively) SureGrip™ can accommodate the force requirements for many typical belt systems.
