Slider Belt Conveyor
Your shortcut to smooth handling
Charter's Slider Conveyor belts glide on cost-effective, easily replaceable UHMW slats instead of traditional idler rollers. This simple yet versatile design makes them an economical alternative to more complex conveyor options.

Product Data
Description
Charter’s Slider Conveyors typically utilize long-lasting, interwoven PVC belts driven by friction on the drive pulley. These belts, known as "Free Slide", feature a durable PVC top and a bare polyester bottom, proven for extended wear, high performance, and smooth material handling. The minimal friction of the bare surface reduces energy consumption. Additionally, the belts glide on cost-effective, easily replaceable UHMW slats instead of traditional idler rollers. This simple yet versatile design makes them a cost-effective alternative to more complex conveyor systems, handling materials like fertilizers, chemicals, and bulk materials efficiently. Ideal for short-run distances.
Our custom-designed belt conveyors are built to handle your unique application, following industry best practices. We factor in bulk material characteristics, feed rate, loading needs, temperature and more for a tailored solution.
Features
Wear Pad UHMW Belt Supports
- Wear pads are a fraction of the cost compared to traditional idlers, saving you money upfront and over time.
- Our wear pads are easy to replace, minimizing downtime and keeping your operation running smoothly.
- Consistent support along the entire troughing section, reducing belt stress and extending its lifespan.
Emergency Stop System
