DIFFERENT STYLES OF LAGGING FINISHES

Diamond Groove Lagging

This is the standard

pattern on all SpecDrum lagged conveyor pulleys. It is primarily used for reversing conveyor
drive pulleys. It is also often used to allow bi-directional pulley rotation, and the pattern allows
water to be dispersed away from the belt.
Plain Lagging

This style of finish is

suitable for any pulley in the conveyor system where watershed is not necessary. It provides
additional protection against belt wear, therefore, increasing the life of the pulley.

Herringbone Lagging

The herringbone
patterns grooves are in the direction of rotation, and offers superior tractive properties. Each
groove allows water and other liquids to escape between the face of the drum pulley and the belt.
Herringbone grooved pulleys are directional and should be applied to the conveyor in a
manner in which the grooves point toward the direction of the belt travel.

Chevron Lagging

Some customers
specify that the points of the groove should meet as done in Chevron styled lagging. As before
with the herringbone style, this would be used on drive drum pulleys and should be fitted in the
correct manner, so as to allow proper use of the pattern and water dispersion also.
