ASGCO added the Grizzly conveyor belt skiver to its line of conveyor belt products.

The Grizzly is a safe and easy way to remove or recess conveyor belt covers in order to install mechanical fasteners, ASGCO says. It is battery operated, featuring dual-acting tungsten carbide blades that accurately skive the rubber off conveyor belt surfaces.

According to ASGCO, skived conveyor belts provide for a stronger and longer conveyor belt splice life. The lower profile helps with belt cleaner performance.

The Grizzly conveyor belt skiver comes as a kit that is complete with a battery charger, two batteries and a set of tungsten carbide replacement blades – all in a zippered canvas bag.
