Description
Steelgrip 1A Belt Fastener is a hook-style alligator lacing (mechanical belt fastener) for belts 1/16 to 3/32 inch on pulleys 1 1/2 inch or larger. Galvanized Steel construction.
What is in the package:
- 6 sets of alligator-style lacing, each 6 inches long
- Cross-scored design - break by hand to fit any belt width
- Corrugated hinge pin (one per box, for splicing)
- Gauge pin (for proper alignment during installation)
- Installation instructions
How Steelgrip works: A continuous one-piece fastener strip with teeth that embed lengthwise into the belt carcass and connect at the splice with a removable corrugated hinge pin. The common connecting bar distributes tension uniformly across the full belt width. Teeth are shaped to divide (not sever) the longitudinal carcass fibers, producing a vise-like hold on rubber, PVC, fabric, and light urethane belts.
Installation: Only a hammer and the included gauge pin are required. Lacing is cross-scored so installers snap it to any belt width by hand with no drilling, punching, or special tools.
Material: Galvanized steel provides some resistance to elements using a low-carbon steel base. Magnetic and poor chemical resistance. Standard material for Steelgrip sizes 00, 1A, and 7.
Applications: Used in warehouse and parcel sortation conveyors, airport baggage handling, industrial baking lines, and light manufacturing.
Direct Flexco equivalent: Steelgrip 1A is the direct equivalent to Flexco Alligator 1A at matching size numbers.
