Top and bottom plates sandwich each belt end and are secured by a staggered pattern of self-setting Riv-Nails (semi-tubular rivets paired with pilot nails). The compression design does not rely entirely on belt fabric for pull-out resistance, making Riv-Nail the preferred mechanical splice on worn belts and high-strength synthetic carcasses.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is in the package:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMatched set of top and bottom galvanized steel plates\u003c\/strong\u003e sized for 18\" belt width\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEach plate has pre-pierced holes for \u003cstrong\u003e2 rivets per plate position\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClinching washers (pre-assembled into bottom plate)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInstallation instructions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRivets and hinge pin sold separately.\u003c\/strong\u003e Order R-2 size rivets (matching material) and a 1\/4\" steel cable hinge pin sized to your belt width to complete the splice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e Rivets and hinge pin ordered separately.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCommon applications:\u003c\/strong\u003e coal mining, sawmill main belts, aggregate processing, asphalt plants, grain handling, and general heavy industrial conveyors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Galvanized steel is the standard Riv-Nail material for general industrial conveying in dry and moderate environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFlexco cross-reference:\u003c\/strong\u003e Riv-Nail R-2 is the direct equivalent to Flexco SR R2 Rivet Hinged.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eManufactured by MATO Corporation (formerly Conveyor Accessories, Inc.).
