01 / Belt cleaners
A clean belt is just beyond this rugged blade.
The CBS™ Continuous Blade Secondary™ Belt Cleaner is designed with an unsegmented blade for excellent cleaning efficiency and low maintenance.
The heavy-duty blade features a steel backbone holding a carbide leading edge which is encapsulated in Flexco's proprietary polyurethane to provide a long-wearing solution for your belt. When paired with a spring or air tensioner, the blade maintains constant pressure on the belt for excellent cleaning efficiency.
The thin, hard edge of the metal blade delivers high cleaning efficiency and long wear life.
Made from heavy-duty, corrosion-resistant steel, the CBS™ is available in sizes for belt widths from 18 to 96" (450 to 2400 mm). Additional sizes are available upon request.
All service can be performed from a safe position at the side of the conveyor.

Conveyor data. Actionable insights.
The Flexco Elevate® Belt Rip Prevention system is an intelligent platform solution designed to protect and optimize conveyor systems.
The platform collects and correlates data from multiple sensors, using an AI-based predictive model to help identify potential issues and support proactive maintenance.

Skiving a belt removes a portion of the belt top cover to simplify fastener installation. By removing part of the top cover, the installed fasteners create a stronger grip on the belt carcass.
Since skiving a belt removes the top layer from the belt, it leaves room for the fasteners to lie even with or below the rest of the belt surface. This feature reduces the chance of the fasteners interfering with any of the belt components or conveyor structure.
Skiving involves taking off some of the top cover of the belt to create a low profile and make the fasteners more compatible with the cleaners, encouraging a longer life for both the cleaners and the fasteners.

03 / Cutting and skiving
Cut and skive your belt quickly, safely and accurately.
The 900 Series Belt Cutter/Skiver is a two-in-one belt maintenance tool that allows the user to cut and skive a belt safely and accurately. Designed with operator safety in mind, the blade is completely enclosed during the entire cutting and skiving process.
The cutter blade is captured within the extrusion, ensuring a perpendicular cut. The skiver provides a close fit to the fastener with a 90° skive for better cleaner interaction.
The 8 point knobs and drive handle make using this tool operator friendly. The belt stop and skive chart also allow the operator to easily select and set the width of the skive for the appropriate fastener size.
Allows the cut belt to fall free on one side, eliminating the need for the blade to cut through two clamped surfaces, thus reducing operator effort.
The skiver can be manually or drill powered, the socket needed for either method is provided.
The skiver and cutter use a common socket size, allowing for both to be driven with the drive handle. It is not recommended that users use a drill to power the cutter.
This angle provides a closer fit to the fastener size needed for better cleaner interaction.
The settings for the "belt thickness before skive" and "belt thickness after skive" allow the user to set the skive depth to the belt thickness needed for a fastener or skive off a desired amount.
The skiver will skive the entire belt to the specified thickness, using the bottom of the belt as a reference point to produce a consistent belt thickness along the whole belt width.
