Conical nubs molded into a Cambelt belt curing mold

Sand & Frac Sand

Wet or dry, coarse or fine, sand is one of the most abrasive materials a belt can be asked to carry — and frac sand raises the stakes with fine particles at high throughput.

The material

What it does to equipment

  • Fine, highly abrasive particles that punish cover stock and cleat edges.
  • Wet and dry handling in the same operation, with very different carryback behavior.
  • High throughput targets that can't be met at the cost of excess belt wear.
The fit

How we move it

  • CamWall™

    Deep corrugated sidewalls contain fine material on steep climbs.

  • Cambelt™

    One-piece molded construction specified to abrasive duty.

  • CamFlex™

    Nubbed surface moves material up the incline without the cleat speed penalty.

In the process

Where we've handled it

  • Washing & classifying feed
  • Stockpile building & reclaim
  • Railcar loading & unloading
  • Truck load-out

Throughput and incline capability depend on the material condition and the layout. We publish numbers only when they're verified — ask an engineer what this material does on a Cambelt belt.
