The Clipper ® Vise Lacer is the ideal lacing 

tool for the user with only a few conveyor 

belts, while providing the reliability and 

performance of a machine splice. It is also 

easy to use and inexpensive. 

Simply place the lacer in a vise, load the 

hooks, insert the belt, and close the vise. 

The exclusive built-in pressure plate 

ensures a consistent clinch for long-lasting 

splices. And the Acusteel Hook Retainer 

produces an optimal loop profile for maximum 

splice performance. 

Vise Lacers are available for all series of 

Clipper hook sizes in widths up to 10" 

(250 mm). Wider belts can be laced in 

multiple operations with the easy-to-use 

continuous lacing feature.

The portable, easy-to-use Clipper ® Roller 

Lacer ® makes it easy to lace belts up to 60" 

(1500 mm) wide in a single operation. Belts 

wider than the lacer’s width can be laced in 

multiple passes with the continuous lacing 

feature. A handle-actuated belt clamp holds 

belts securely while twin rollers embed 

fasteners evenly to create a strong, longlasting 

splice. 

A durable, lightweight body made from 

sturdy aircraft aluminum and a carrying 

handle make it easy to take the Roller Lacer 

on-site to lace belts right on the conveyor. 

Plus, there is room for extra lacer pins and 

face strips in a handy storage compartment. 

For more frequent lacing applications, 

and/or when installing hooks into hard 

belts, specify the Roller Lacer with the 

optional steel lacing head.

For easy, economical installation and an 

exceptionally smooth joint, choose the 

Alligator ® Conveyor Belt Lacing System. 

Alligator Lacing is available in continuous 

lengths to fit any belt width and the onepiece 

design provides uniform tension 

across the full belt width. The one-piece 

fastener strip also ensures that there are no 

loose pieces to work themselves out of the 

belt and into the conveyed product. 

Designed for belts from 1/32" (.8 mm) to 

1/2" (12.5 mm), Alligator Belt Lacing 

installation requires no special tools, only a 

hammer. The lacing is secured with teeth 

that embed lengthwise on the belt, providing 

a strong, vise-like hold. Clips hold gauge 

rod and lacing firmly and squarely against 

the belt and ensures a strong, straight splice. 

The straight splice also helps ease hinge pin 

insertion.

Flexco ® Bolt Solid Plate fasteners are engineered

strong sift-free splice and superior holding ability. 

A choice of sizes accommodates belts from 

3/16" (5 mm) to over 15/16" (24 mm) thick. 

High strength 

High strength is the result of superior design 

and plate compression on both the top and 

bottom sides of the belt. High tensile strength 

bolts compress top and bottom plates to 

distribute splice tension evenly across the 

entire width of each fastener plate. For added 

strength and pull-out resistance, specially 

formed teeth penetrate deep into the belt 

carcass – without damaging carcass fibers. 

Easy installation 

Field-proven templets, punches, and boring 

tools make it easy to quickly and accurately 

prepare belts for fastener installation. 

Fasteners are easily installed on-site using 

portable hand tools or power tools. Our 

exclusive piloted bolts also contribute to 

faster installation.

Flexco ® SR Scalloped Edge Fastener Selection Guide 


Range 

The Flexco ® SR Scalloped Edge fastener 

features a low profile that significantly 

reduces the fastener’s exposure to cleaner 

blades, skirt rubber, and return idlers. 

Reduced wear and tear on the fastener 

extends the life of the splice to maximize 

belt availability and to help keep 

productivity on a roll. 

Improved performance 

Designed for rubber plied and PVC solid 

woven belting, and for worn belts unfit for 

vulcanized splices, the Flexco SR fastener 

features a patented Scalloped Edge design. 

The scalloped design contributes to 

improved fastener profile resulting in 

increased compatibility with belt cleaners 

and improved cleaner-tip wear. The 

staggered rivet pattern also provides maximum 

holding ability by allowing the rivets 

to pass betweeen the carcass fibers without 

damaging them. 

A built-in viewport simplifies fastener positioning. 

And self-setting rivets are installed 

from the top side of the belt for faster installation.

• Made for mining conveyors. Made from heavy-duty steel with corrosion-resistant 

powder coating, the H-Type is available in sizes for belt widths from 18" to 72" (450 

to 1800mm). Additional sizes are available upon request. 

• Optimal positioning. Blade contact on the pulley is 15° below the horizontal 

centerline. This keeps the blades out of the discharge path and protects them from 

rocks, large lumps and other debris.

MSP 

Standard Mine-Duty Precleaner 

Economical and Effective 

The MSP Standard-Duty Precleaner is not your average solid-blade belt cleaner that mounts on the head pulley. It is a 

mine-tough design that combines simple, do-it-yourself installation, quick maintenance and effective cleaning results with 

an affordable price tag. 

Heavy-duty 2-7/8” 

(72 mm) pole ensures 

durability for those 

tough applications 

Faceted profile design results in 

continuous blade edge “renewal” for 

improved cleaning efficiency throughout 

the life of the blade 


• Quick-change blade. No tools are needed. Just pull one pin, remove the old blade, 

slide in the new one and replace the pin. 

• Works with Flexco and other mechanical splices. The spring tensioner quickly 

moves the blade away from the belt when a splice passes. The polyurethane blade 

easily glides over the splice without damage and with minimal cleaning disruption. 

• Easy to service. All maintenance work is done from the easy-access side of the 

beltline. Blade retensioning and change-out are quick and easy. 

• Fits most conveyor structures. Available for belt widths from 24" to 84" (600 

to 2100mm). The MSP poles are extra long (belt width plus 54"/1350 mm) to 

accommodate varying structure widths. 


Material path options, 

belt width minus, 2”, 8” 

or 14”, guarantee proper 

cleaning and blade life

EZP-LS Limited Space Stainless Steel Primary Cleaner 

with White ConShear LS Blade 

Big Features in a Small Package 

for Corrosive Environments 

Many conveyors and portables have tight space configurations. That means a belt cleaner must be small 

and compact to fit. The new EZP-LS Primary Cleaner delivers a big cleaning job in a compact cleaner, with 

the added advantage of corrosion resistant stainless steel components. 

Smaller blade and 

mounting clearance 

allows installation on 

conveyors with pulleys 

as small as 150mm (6”). 

Faceted profile design 

results in continuous 

blade edge “renewal” 

for improved cleaning 

efficiency throughout the 

life of the blade. 


• White food-grade ConShear Primary Cleaner is chemical resistant and all 

ingredients used in urethane formulation comply with the relevant requirements 

of 21 CFR (FDA Code of Federal Regulations) for use in repeated bulk dry food 

applications. 

• Stainless Steel. Corrosive environments wear on any component, but stainless steel 

can protect against that. 

• Quick-change blade. No tools are needed. Just pull one pin, remove the old blade, 

slide in the new one and replace the pin. 

• Can be used on reversing belts. Installing cleaners on both pulleys gives superior 

cleaning results on belts that run in both directions. 

• Can be ordered for special configurations. Special order options include: a 

stainless steel pole for corrosive applications or a high temp ConShear-LS Blade for 

applications with temperatures up to 135° C (275° F) with spikes to 163° C (325° F).

Econo-Cleat ® Model EC 


• Harvesting 

• Material handling 

• Bulk materials 

• Canned goods 

Cleat bottom is concave to ensure a tight 

seal against the belt when fastened. 

TAC205 

Designed to prevent material roll-back 

on incline conveyors, the Tatch-A-Cleat ® 

Econo-Cleat ® Model EC is ideal for lightduty 

to medium-duty applications, including 

grain handling, harvesting equipment, 

material handling, and canned goods. 

The versatile design also permits use as a 

cleat, plow, or belt scraper in a variety of 

positions and on any type of belt. These 

cleats vary in height from 1-1/4" (31 mm) to 

6" (150 mm) and in angles from 45º to 90º 

before installation. 

Tough and economical 

solution for bulk-material 

handling 

The Econo-Cleat is constructed from a specially 

compounded, durable EPDM rubber 

that provides good resistance to abrasion. 

Plus, it stands up well to all types of weather, 

including constant exposure to sunlight 

and ozone. Also available in PVC for less 

demanding applications. 

The Econo-Cleat also provides economical 

cleating without remnants – short sections 

may be butted together. Separate cleat 

supports are not necessary. 

Cleat resilience and specially engineered 

shape carry product gently and prevent 

possible damage to both the belt and 

conveyed product.
