Finger Splicing Conveyor Belting

Creating Solutions, Not Excuses!

Consistently on the cutting edge of Splicing Technology, Fenner Dunlop has taken its Finger Splicing Technique one step further by developing a procedure that makes Finger Splicing straight-warp belts less time consuming, less expensive and easier to perform.

When Fenner Dunlop Certified Splice Technicians install Fenner Dunlop belting utilizing proper techniques, tools and splice materials, the Finger Splice will deliver:
  • A dynamically lab tested and field proven method of splicing that will result in optimum operating capacity.
  • Excellent performance in serpentine or "S" type drives.
  • Greater splice flexibility than any other splicing method in the industry.
  • Less chance of damage due to cutting and buffing the strength members of the fabric plies when preparing and stripping the belt ends.
  • Life cycle four times greater than conventional step splices done on conventional multi-plied or straight-warp conveyor belt constructions.
  • Versatility in installing the Finger Splice on a bias or square.
