Conveyor belts — Determination of strength of mechanical fastenings for textile conveyor belts— Static test method

This document specifies a static test method for measuring the strength of a conveyor belt mechanical fastening; the mechanical joints can be either of the type employing a connecting rod or of a type which does not employ a connecting rod.

This document does not cover vulcanized joints.

This document is neither applicable to nor valid for light conveyor belts, as described in ISO 21183-1.

NOTE            The purpose of the test specified in this document is to eliminate mechanical fastenings of insufficient static strength. It is intended to establish a dynamic test at a later date.
