Slider Cradle

Installed under the skirtboard of a transfer point, Martin® Slider Cradles support the edges of the belt to eliminate sag. These cradles prevent transfer point spillage by stabilizing the belt’s path and allow the effective sealing of the belt edge. Cradles are available with high-performance UHMW Bars to match application requirements.

Features and Benefits:

  • Metric Design The Martin® Slider Cradles are dimensionally adapted to metric conveyor systems and can be combined with European Martin® Impact Cradles and Martin® Trac-Mount™ Idlers.
  • Stabilizes Belt Path Cradles support belt edges, allowing effective skirting.
  • Protects the Belt Cradles avoids the pinch points where trapped material can damage the belt.
  • Low Friction The conveyor belt glides over low friction UHMW bars with requiring very little added driving force and minimal heat formation.
  • Double Wear Surface Unique “box” design of UHMW bar allows use of both top and bottom surface of a bar.
  • Low Maintenance To compensate for wear, adjust cradle easily with hand tools. Simple bar replacement, without dismentling the entire system.
  • Cradles to Fit Conditions Cradles can be easily adjusted to fit any troughing angle between 0° to 45°. Additional options available on request to meet diverse application requirements.
