Using the Safety Mandrel allows belt cleaners to be installed and removed in a significantly safer and more controlled manner. It greatly reduces manual handling strain by providing internal support to the scraper pole, helping maintenance personnel manage weight and alignment more effectively. The design also eliminates common hand pinch points during removal and installation, reducing the risk of injury.
Once positioned, the mandrel can remain securely in place without affecting the normal operation or performance of the belt cleaner. It is especially valuable in applications where access is restricted on one side of the conveyor, allowing safe maintenance to be carried out even in confined or limited-clearance areas.
Description
SEC Business Group’s Safety Mandrel is a purpose-built maintenance tool designed
to improve safety, efficiency, and control during the installation and removal
of belt cleaner poles.
Engineered for demanding conveyor environments, it reduces manual handling strain
while ensuring secure and stable pole management throughout maintenance procedures.
Manufactured with a heavy-duty steel pole and durable nylon outer strips,
the Safety Mandrel delivers long-term strength, smooth operation,
and dependable performance in harsh operating conditions.
Its design enhances operational safety while simplifying access in
challenging conveyor locations.
The telescoping design allows the mandrel to extend seamlessly inside the scraper pole,
providing stable internal support during both installation and removal.
By supporting the leading end during installation and the trailing end during removal,
it minimises strain on maintenance personnel and improves overall safety and control.
Equipped with a removable handle, the Safety Mandrel enables safe and efficient
operation in confined or restricted-access areas, including near conveyor drives
and tight structural clearances.
Suitable for both primary and secondary belt cleaner systems.
A locking pin and keeper chain with shackles ensure the mandrel remains securely
engaged during operation, preventing accidental disengagement and maintaining
consistent positioning throughout the maintenance process.
