Slipping spools can cause avoidable downtime and excess wear on O-rings. Preventing this is simple with two conveyor accessories: black keyed spools and plastic C-clips.
Black keyed spool were created for curves, inclines, or greater drive conveyors. These spools sport a key within the midsection, which aligns with the ridge on keyed line shafts. By aligning the spool key with the line shaft ridge, slipping spools are virtually eliminated.
Plastic C-clips were created to preventing slipping spools and the premature wearing of O-rings. These C-clips are shaped as a half circle, creating a simple installation. Placing a C-clip on either side of each spool is a certain way to prevent unnecessary conveyor downtime.
Split spools can save an immense amount of downtime. These two-piece spools can simply be situated around the line shaft and clicked together. Once connected, these spools will not come back apart until it is time to replace them.
Making the switch from endless O-rings to twisted O-rings is much easier than expected. In just a few simple steps, you will be on your way to reduced conveyor downtime. Follow The Two-Step Switch instructions, and start saving conveyor downtime now.
Poly twisted O-rings were created with one goal in mind: save downtime. The switch from endless polyurethane O-rings to twisted polyurethane O-rings could save you hours of downtime each year.
