A new replacement bracket from Hallen Specialties is helping mining companies reduce downtime from damaged idler frame roller center supports.

The patented belt conveyor idler replacement bracket eliminates the need to replace the entire frame when a center support fails.

“Not only is downtime reduced, but this new bracket does the job at a fraction of the cost when compared to replacing the entire frame,” said Pamela Siblik, president of Hallen Specialties.

After removing the rollers and cutting or breaking away the damaged frame roller center supports, the belt conveyor idler replacement bracket is installed by aligning bracket cut‐outs over the remnants of the removed frame center supports and then securing with bolts, nuts, and washers. The entire operation takes approximately 20 minutes.
