Urethane belt wipers are found in many conveyor belt systems that consist of material processing. Custom urethane belt wipers are great to help clean away debris such as rock, gravel, sand, stone, and other substances processed on conveyors that can create material build up. Bolted to the conveyor they are easy to install or replace existing urethane belt wipers. With our team of engineers and chemist’s, we can also match your existing custom urethane belt wiper perfectly often times costing less than OEM replacements. Urethane belt wipers last far longer than metal, plastic, steel, or UHMW wiper alternatives.
Typical urethane belt wipers are an 80A, however, they can be produced in hardness from 30A-75D durometer, which ensures cut resistance and resiliency. The major advantages of the urethane belt wipers include high load-carrying capability, high dielectric strength and non-magnetic with protection against marring/galling with a long life while still offering abrasion resistance.
Urethane is also resistant to most oil and solvent and will help dampen vibration or shock. Plan Tech also has the ability to fabricate any core required that will be chemically bonded in our clean rooms and then molded into the mating parts of the urethane wiper blade. The leading edge of the wiper can also be produced up to 120’’ long with beveled edges from 45° down to 20° this will allow you to select the best urethane belt wiper that lays flat and provides the best seal. Whether you have an existing wiper that needs recovering or need a new core fabricated to your design specifications we are able to provide custom services. We can also strip off the existing worn covering and apply a new urethane covering to an existing core. All colors, all durometer are available and a variety of additives can be added to enhance wear properties, add lubricity, UV stabilized, flame retardant, or to reduce static build up. A metal detectable additive can also be added for FDA requirements.
