KEEP THE GRIT OUT. KEEP PRODUCTION MOVING.

Advanced bearing protection for screw conveyors and demanding bulk material handling applications.

Dust, dirt, and abrasive materials are among the biggest enemies of industrial bearings. In screw conveyor applications, these contaminants can compromise conventional bearing seals, leading to premature failures, increased maintenance costs, and costly production interruptions.

Cambelt's patented GritLock Bearing is engineered to help prevent abrasive contaminants from reaching critical bearing seals, providing an additional layer of protection where conventional bearing arrangements may struggle.

Whether you're designing a new screw conveyor or improving the reliability of existing equipment, GritLock offers an innovative approach to bearing protection.

ENGINEERED FOR THE ENVIRONMENTS THAT DESTROY BEARINGS.

Contamination Protection

Helps prevent abrasive dust, dirt, and material particles from reaching critical bearing seals.

Improved Equipment Reliability

Designed to reduce exposure to contamination that contributes to premature bearing failure.

Reduced Maintenance Exposure

Protecting bearings from abrasive contamination can help reduce maintenance requirements and unplanned interruptions.

OEM-Ready Solution

A bearing protection option for equipment manufacturers seeking improved durability in challenging bulk material handling applications.

Featured application / Screw conveyors

BUILT FOR THE CHALLENGES OF SCREW CONVEYORS.

Screw conveyors are widely used to move powders, aggregates, cement, sand, and other bulk materials. These applications often expose shaft bearings to airborne dust, abrasive particles, and material buildup.

When contaminants penetrate bearing seals, the resulting wear can lead to premature bearing replacement and costly equipment downtime.

Cambelt's GritLock Bearing provides an additional layer of protection designed to keep abrasive contaminants away from critical bearing seals.

Ideal applications include:

  • Screw conveyors and auger systems
  • Cement and concrete processing equipment
  • Sand and aggregate handling
  • Powder and dry bulk material conveying
  • Mining and mineral processing equipment
  • Agricultural bulk material handling

DESIGN GRITLOCK INTO YOUR EQUIPMENT.

Cambelt works with original equipment manufacturers to provide innovative solutions for demanding material handling applications.

If you manufacture screw conveyors, augers, or other equipment operating in dusty and abrasive environments, GritLock could be a valuable addition to your equipment design.

Our team can work with your engineers to evaluate bearing protection requirements and explore integration opportunities.
