Elevator Bolts

Elevator bolts are used to secure buckets to belts in vertical conveyor systems especially in grain elevators and bulk material transport equipment. Their wide flat head ensures that they sit evenly against the belt surface without pulling through. These bolts are also used in food processing and packaging lines where smooth finishes are important. Their design prevents rotation and keeps parts stable during movement. You’ll often find them in systems that require repeated lifting and dropping of materials.

Unlike typical bolts elevator bolts have a wide thin head that allows for secure mounting against flexible surfaces like belts. They also have a short square neck that locks into place during tightening which prevents the bolt from turning. This makes them easier to install with a single tool. Their low profile reduces obstruction which is important in systems that need smooth material flow. The shape and fit are specially designed to handle movement vibration and heavy loads. They are essential for vertical lift or conveyor applications.

Yes elevator bolts can be manufactured in custom sizes lengths and head types to match specific belt thickness or machinery dimensions. You can choose from different materials like stainless steel or galvanized steel for corrosion resistance. Finishes can be added for wear resistance or chemical protection. Bulk orders can include labeling inspection certificates and traceability codes. B2B clients often order them based on machine specs or system design.
