4B's STEEL WEB belt is a rubber elevator belt with a special steel cord core. The cords provide low elongation with high elasticity in the length, and cross rigidity in the width. The built-in elasticity allows running over slightly crowned pulleys which greatly improves belt tracking. The rigid weft cords act as a barrier to ripping and tearing which increases the holding ability for the bucket bolts. This produces a good cross rigid belt resulting in excellent straight tracking characteristics. In contrast, most conventional steel cable belts lack elasticity and consequently have to run over truly flat, cylindrical pulleys which increases the risk of belts off tracking.
- Tall high capacity elevators, hot industrial materials
- Minimum stretch
- 3+3 or 4+4 covers
- Temperature resistant up to 130C continuous

4B Braime Belt Clamp
The Braime Clamp (BC) series of heavy duty belt splices securely fastens belting on larger bucket elevators.
Designed from three pieces of extruded aluminium including a centre wedge section to minimize belt wear.
Starco™ Jumbo Bucket
Deep drawn solid steel elevator bucket, designed to replace large fabricated elevator buckets. For use with both standard rubber and steel web belting along with plain holes, on a chain and bucket elevator.
FAQ's
Do I have to use the Braime Clamp (BC) splice with 4B steel web belting?
Yes, the Braime Clamp (BC2, BC3 and BC4) was specifically designed for steel web belting.
Can the BC1 version of the Braime Clamp be used with 4B steel web belting?
No, the BC1 is for textile belts only. The BC2, BC3 and BC4 versions incorporate an additional three piece vise grip section designed to secure the steel cords.
Is there a specific type of elevator bolt to use with 4B steel web belting?
4B recommends Euro DIN 15237 elevator bolts with hex keyed ends. The hex keyed ends make installation much easier when trying to get the bolt through the steel web core. Using a hex or allen wrench allows you to "screw" the bolt through the steel webbing.
