CLOUTH FELT-CLIP®, CLOUTH BELT-CLIP® and CLOUTH WIRE-AND FELT-HOLDER® - three strong partners to be used when changing felts, wet screens and plastic belts.
One example for a possible use is the replacement of the sensitive felt webs which, due to their size and thickness, have a very high weight. To change these, many manual working steps are necessary, there is an increased risk of injury.
With the development of the a.m. safety accessories, Clouth intends to minimise the risk of accidents:
The CLOUTH FELT-CLIP® is a self-holding clip for a safe and quick move-in/move-out of felts and wet screens. To be suitable for the wet area, it is made from aluminium and you can choose between an extensible eyelet for the rope hoist operation or a handle for the manual operation. The CLOUTH FELT-CLIP® is available in different sizes and special designs.
The CLOUTH BELT-CLIP® as well is a self-holding clip; it is for the safe move-in/move-out of plastic belts. The clip is made from VA-steel and thanks to its two untempered gripper wheels it is safe in handling and ensures a safe grip on oily belts, too. The clip, which is a lightweight of only 900 grams, has an extensible eyelet at the rear end.
Initially the clamping jaws of both clips are closed. The clips can be opened by one’s own hand by mere drag and then firmly lay around the web when opened.
The CLOUTH WIRE- AND FELT-HOLDER® is a self-clamping holder which is used to close the seams of open felts and dry screens. With its rubberized holding plates out of aluminium and a weight of 2,900 grams, it offers a safe hold on the felts or dry screens to close the cut surface.
Of course, we have paid attention to an ergonomic design in the development of our products.
