Return Belt Ploughs are fitted to effectively stop material spillage from penetrating the tail drum, which depending on the size of the rogue material, can cause mis-tracking, damage to the drum or even damage to the belt carcass. Both the Vee Plough and the Diagonal Plough are fully floating to accommodate any belt undulations and ensures a constant contact and pressure with the belt for the life of the blade. When the low friction blade is worn, it can quickly and easily be changed. The steel blade carrier is equipped with an adjustable stop to prohibit the steel carrier from contacting the belt when the blade is worn out.
