WEARLOK®

Tunneling can present many difficult challenges and requires a specialized belt to deliver ultimate performance in this rugged conveying environment.  Fenner Dunlop Engineered Conveyor Solutions has developed Wearlok® for this very reason.

Wearlok® has been specifically designed for tunneling applications and has proven to be one of the most reliable belts out there.  The unique straight-warp design makes for a stronger, more durable belt providing extended life, high load-carrying capacity, and low stretch.

Wearlok® possesses many unique features and benefits including:

• Resistance to abrasion, snagging, and cutting.
• Up to three times greater impact resistance than conventional belts.
• Up to six times better rip and tear resistance.
• Heavyweight and high-strength straight yarns bound together in unique binder system.
• Well-balanced conveyor belt, which lowers the risk of cupping, curling, and tracking problems.

Wearlok® is manufactured in two ways.  Wearlok® I uses a pulley cover gauge at least one-half (1/2) the carry cover gauge and Wearlok® II uses a pulley cover gauge at least one-third (⅓) the carry cover gauge.

Wearlok® is made with Fenner Dunlop’s premium Mining-FAR compound:

• Fire retardant, abrasion resistant compound that meets ARPM-FR Class 2 requirements
• Excellent abrasion resistant cover compound for tunneling and mining applications
• For underground, non-coal mining applications
