Ripstop Steel Cord
Conveyor Belt

Maximum Tear Resistance for Heavy Impact Conditions

Designed for mining, ports, and heavy-duty bulk handling systems where sharp materials, high drop heights, and sudden impact events demand more than a standard belt can deliver. The Ripstop series integrates a dedicated breaker layer to stop tear propagation before it becomes a catastrophic failure.

Core Advantages

Why Choose Ripstop?

Every industrial conveyor belt tears eventually — but not all belts are built to stop a tear from becoming a total loss. The Ripstop structure adds a critical line of defense that standard steel cord belts simply do not have.

Breaker layer protection prevents catastrophic belt failure — a single tear in a standard belt can propagate across the full width in minutes, costing days of unplanned downtime. The Ripstop breaker layer stops it at the source.
Tear Resistance
Steel or textile breaker layers inserted in the top and/or bottom cover intercept and arrest longitudinal tears before they can propagate — regardless of the size or sharpness of the impacting material. The belt stays whole where standard belts split.
Stops tears at the source
Impact Protection
The breaker layer acts as a secondary armour beneath the cover rubber, distributing high-energy point loads across a wider area before they reach the steel cord carcass. This dramatically reduces cord damage and cover puncture at loading points.
Protects carcass at loading zones
Longer Service Life
By preventing the micro-tears and edge damage that accumulate into major belt failures, the Ripstop structure extends operational service life by 30–50% in comparable impact environments — directly reducing annualised belt replacement capital expenditure.
30–50% longer lifespan
Reduced Maintenance Cost
Fewer emergency belt repairs, fewer unplanned shutdowns, and longer intervals between scheduled maintenance events. Every avoided downtime event saves not just belt cost but also production loss, labour, and the knock-on costs of delayed throughput.
Lower cost per tonne conveyed

Product Structure

Six-Layer Ripstop Architecture

Every layer is engineered with a specific purpose. The breaker layer — unique to the Ripstop series — is what separates this belt from every standard steel cord design on the market.

Ripstop Series — Six-Layer Cross-Section
1
Top Cover
High-abrasion rubber compound. Primary wear surface formulated to resist impact, abrasion, and weather exposure across the full belt width.
2
Breaker Layer (Top)
Steel or textile mesh inserted directly beneath the top cover. Intercepts and arrests tear propagation — the defining feature of the Ripstop series.
KEY LAYER
3
Skim Rubber & Steel Cord Carcass
High-tensile galvanized steel cords embedded in bonding rubber at precise pitch. Provides the tensile strength and structural backbone of the belt.
4
Breaker Layer (Bottom)
Optional second breaker layer beneath the carcass for applications with severe underside impact — provides dual-direction tear arrest capability.
OPTIONAL
5
Bottom Cover
Abrasion-resistant compound protects against idler and return roller wear. Formulated to match the top cover durability specification.
6
Edge Rubber
Seals all cord ends and breaker layer edges against moisture and mechanical damage, maintaining structural integrity across the full belt cross-section.
Reinforced with steel or textile breaker layers to prevent longitudinal tearing — the Ripstop architecture is the industry benchmark for impact-zone conveyor protection.

Application Scenarios

Built for High-Impact Industries

Wherever sharp materials, high drop heights, or sudden impact events put standard belts at risk, the Ripstop series provides the margin of safety that keeps operations running.

Mining conveyor application

The Real Cost of Belt Failure

The Problem with Standard Belts
!
Belt Tearing from Sharp Materials
A single sharp rock or piece of metal at the loading zone can initiate a longitudinal tear that propagates across the full belt width in under a minute — taking an entire conveyor system offline.
!
High Unplanned Downtime Cost
Emergency belt failure repairs require crane access, vulcanising equipment, and specialist labour — often requiring 24–72 hours of full system downtime that costs far more than the belt itself.
!
Frequent Belt Replacement
Repeated impact events progressively weaken the cover and carcass even when full tears are avoided — leading to accelerated replacement cycles that inflate annual maintenance budgets and spare-belt inventory costs.
The Ripstop Solution
Ripstop Structure Prevents Tear Propagation
The integrated breaker layer intercepts any tear at the point of initiation and prevents it from running further. A puncture stays a puncture — it never becomes a catastrophic split that brings the operation down.
Extends Belt Lifetime by 30–50%
By protecting the carcass from cumulative impact damage, the Ripstop belt consistently delivers 30–50% longer service life in high-impact operations — translating directly to lower annualised belt cost and reduced inventory burden.
+30–50%
 longer belt life
Dramatically Lower Maintenance & Downtime Cost
Fewer emergency repairs, fewer replacement events, and longer scheduled maintenance intervals — the Ripstop belt pays for its premium within the first avoided breakdown event in most high-impact applications.

Let us model the total cost of ownership for your current belt vs. the Ripstop. Most customers recover the price premium within one avoided downtime event.
