Snub Pulleys for Steel & Sponge Iron Plants

UGES snub pulleys for steel and sponge iron plants increase belt wrap at drive stations on heavily loaded iron ore, pellet, and sponge iron conveyors. Robust construction withstands the abrasive conditions and high belt tensions characteristic of steel plant material handling.

Snub Pulleys Key Specifications

Pulley Diameter

315mm to 630mm, compact dimensions for positioning near drive pulleys on high-tension steel plant conveyor drive stations

Lagging Type

Bare machined steel face or thin rubber lagging for non-carrying side belt contact in abrasive steel plant environments

Shell Thickness

12mm to 18mm heavy-wall MS shell built to handle the high radial forces from belt tension at steel plant drive stations

Shaft Material

EN19 alloy steel shafts, hardened and ground, for reliable service at high-load drive station snub positions

Bearing Assembly

Spherical roller bearings in plummer blocks with contact seals and high-temperature grease for drive stations near hot zones

Design Standard

Designed to IS 8531 and DIN 22101 standards with compact mounting for steel plant drive station frame layouts

Industrial Applications

Iron Ore Conveyor Drive Wrap Enhancement
Snub pulleys at iron ore conveyor drive stations increase belt wrap to prevent slip when conveying heavy, abrasive ore from stockyard to blast furnace.
Pellet Plant Conveyor Drives
On pellet plant conveyors, snub pulleys ensure adequate drive traction for belts carrying hot, abrasive indurated pellets at high tonnage rates.
Sponge Iron Hot Conveyor Drives
Snub pulleys at hot sponge iron conveyor drive stations maintain belt grip in elevated temperature conditions where rubber lagging friction coefficient drops.
