Dear Les Marnell,

maybe it's to late but if you are still looking for a manufacturer of mechanical fasteners for rubber belts with no need of any special tooling, you have to look on the web site www.minet-france.com:

- rivets fasteners (Jackson was the representative of the company Minet for UK and the Commonwealths before their competitor Flexco have over taken the company; you need only a hammer !)

- MS fasteners with self taping screws (you need only a screw driver !)

- Super-Screw fastener made with fabric, rubber, metal pieces under the rubber and self taping screw for fixing in the belt carcass (you need only a screw driver !)

The last one is a very revolutionary system with most of the advantages of hot splices and usuable also for very heavy duty belts up to several miles long and with a good compatibility with all scrapers (also hard metal). ■
