Rubberised Head Pulley

Head/Drive Pulley is situated at the discharge terminus of the conveyor. It offers the driving force for the conveyor. In order to increase pulley life and traction, it frequently has a larger diameter than other pulleys. We can supply pulleys with hot vulcanized rubber lagging, plain or grooved, as necessary by customer.

Different patterns of grooving such as herringbone or diamond can be provided to increase tactile friction under dirty or wet conditions. Diamond grooves have the advantage of being installed in any orientation, regardless of belt direction.
