Elevator Bolts

  • elevator bolts

Elevator bolts are designed hold together canvas belts used in grain elevators and other conveyer systems. The large diameter of the head and square neck creates a greater bearing surface to keep the bolt from going through the soft conveyor material.
The head of the 
elevator bolt should lie against the inside surface of the elevator belt with the nuts and washers on the inside of the elevator bucket. An ideal installation will result in the elevator bolt head fitting snuggly just below the surface of the elevator belt.
