The Challenge

The customer required a cost-effective solution to extend the operational life of a damaged conveyor belt scheduled for replacement in six months. The belt suffered a 75-meter gouge that exposed the canvas plies, posing a serious risk of structural compromise and potential failure.

LOCTITE's Solution

Henkel’s LOCTITE® PC 7350 was selected for its rapid application and cost-effective repair capabilities. The product was applied to the gouged area using a dispensing gun. Prior to application, the surface was abraded, cleaned, and treated to ensure optimal adhesion. The repair compound was then applied and smoothed to achieve the required finish.

Accelerated Validation: Henkel experts delivered on-site training, enabling faster adoption and validation of the repair process.
