Types of cover defined in SANS conveyor belting standards.
| Cover Type |
Tensile Strength (MPa) |
Elongation at Break (%) |
Abrasion Loss (mm3) |
Remarks |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| A | 20 | 400 | 70 | Rubber cover suitable for use on conveyors, subjecting the belting to a high amount of sliding abrasion. Typically conveyors handling high density materials, loaded at a point of steep incline (>8°) |
| C | 20 | 400 | 150 | General purpose rubber cover, suited to conveying small to large lumps of average density and abrasiveness. |
| F | 14 | 400 | 180 | Special purpose rubber cover for use in fiery mines or applications, where risk from fire or explosion is high. |
| M | 25 | 450 | 120 | High grade rubber cover, suited to conveying large lumps of sharp, high density material, likely to cause cuts or tears. Standard cover type applied on steel cord carcass construction conveyor belting. |
| N | 17 | 400 | 150 | General purpose rubber cover, suited to conveying small to large rounded edge lumps of average density and abrasiveness. |
| NBR | 14 | 350 | 250 | Special purpose rubber cover, applied to conveyor belting of solid woven carcass construction, for use in fiery mines or applications, where risk from fire or explosion is high. |
| PVC | 9 | 250 | 250 | Special purpose rubber cover, applied to conveyor belting of solid woven carcass construction, for use in fiery mines or applications, where risk from fire or explosion is high. |
