Skalper® Belt Cleaner Features & Benefits

  • Excellent Performance – of our patented Skalper® Blade design maintains an effective cleaning edge throughout the life of the blade with its unique horizontal sipes/wear-grooves across the entire width of the blade cleaning edge and by the use of the arc-shaped back side of the blade to ensure a sharp cleaning edge.
  • E-Z Torque® Tensioner – (lifetime warranty) patented – made of all 304 stainless steel mounting plates, collars and springs allows the blades to self adjust throughout the entire life of the blade and is the most robust and accurate belt cleaner tensioner in the industry.
  • Blade-Wear Indicator – allows to monitor blade wear easily without having to shut the system down for inspection.
  • Torque Spring – provides a greater degree of tensioning per inch of blade, verses compression springs which require more tensioning adjustment for the life of the blade.
