SPLICING MATERIALS
DATASHEET

DUNLOP SPLICING MATERIALS


The potentially weakest point of any rubber conveyor belt is the splice joint. A strong, long-lasting
splice joint relies on three key factors – the skill of the person making the splice; the actual quality
of the splicing materials and the equipment used to make the belt itself.
To get the best results it is essential that the splicing material rubber has very similar qualities
to the rubber used to make the belt itself while at the same time is also specifically adapted
to achieve the strongest and most efficient bond. Ideally this is usually best achieved by using
splicing materials supplied by the manufacturer of the belt.
In order to help our customers achieve the best possible results, we supply a wide range of splicing
materials that have been designed and developed by our engineers and technicians to provide
optimum performance in terms of adhesion, dynamic life and efficient application. Dunlop Dundisol
