Skirt Clamps

Skirt Clamp – Secure, Reliable Clamping for Conveyor Skirt Rubber

Skirt clamps are an essential component in a conveyor skirting system. Their purpose is to firmly secure the skirt rubber in place, ensuring consistent pressure along the belt edge and preventing material spillage, dust leakage and belt-edge wear.
YIQI skirt clamps are designed for heavy-duty operations such as mining, quarrying, cement plants, coal handling and bulk terminals, where a stable, adjustable and long-lasting clamp system makes a significant difference to overall conveyor performance.

Compared with traditional bolt-type fastening, the clamp structure provides faster adjustment, easier skirt rubber replacement and better seal integrity. This helps reduce housekeeping, eliminates excessive material loss and extends the life of both the skirt rubber and the conveyor belt.

Skirt clamps are often overlooked until dust or spillage becomes a recurring problem. Here are typical applications where the YIQI system stands out:

Mining & Quarries: When limestone, granite or ore fines spill under high conveyance throughput, the adjusted clamps keep skirtboards tight and prevent return-belt material build-up.

Cement Plants: Dry, powder-rich conveyors demand tight skirt seals. The replaceable inserts allow the clamp to survive sand-blast type wear rather than replace full assemblies.

Port & Bulk Terminals: Exposed to coastal environments, rain, salt spray and wind. Corrosion-resistant clamp systems maintain seal integrity without frequent corrosion repairs.

Aggregate & Sand Transport: Highly abrasive environments where skirt rubber alone wears rapidly; the wear insert takes the abrasion, protecting the main skirt rubber and clamp body.

Any High-Speed Conveyor: For belt speeds above 3 m/s, mechanical clamp tension and high-strength hardware ensure skirt boards remain flush against the belt edge, avoiding material escape.

• Secure grip on all skirt rubber types
• Reduces maintenance and material waste
• Fast install and change-out design
• Durable in dusty, wet, or corrosive environments
• Works with skirting rubber sheets, polyurethane skirts, and more
• Compatible with existing skirt rubber board frames

Q1: What skirt rubber thickness does the clamp support?
Standard 10–25 mm, with customized options available.

Q2: Can the clamp be used in corrosive environments?
Yes. Aluminium alloy components and stainless steel fasteners perform well in wet or coastal locations.

Q3: Is the clamp compatible with polyurethane skirting?
Yes. The adjustable profile fits both rubber and PU skirt materials.

Q4: How long does the wear insert last?
It depends on material abrasiveness, but the insert is designed to be replaceable to extend the hardware lifespan.

Q5: Can the system be retrofitted to existing conveyors?
Absolutely. It is compatible with most skirtboard designs, and installation requires no major structural modification.
