Product catalog summary
Overview
Caterpillar offers a range of engineered class conveyor pulleys, including Turbo-Disc and T-Bottom pulleys, known for their strength and reliability in demanding conditions. These pulleys are suitable for both surface and underground mining applications, capable of handling installed power exceeding 5,000 hp (3,750 kW).

Pulley Specifications
  • Diameters up to 72 inches (1,800 mm)
  • Belt widths up to 96 inches (2,400 mm)
  • Installed horsepower up to 5,000 hp (3,750 kW)
  • Available with rubber or ceramic lagging
  • Mounted bearings

Standard Design
There are two standard designs based on tension requirements:
  • Turbo-Disc: Suitable for T1 tensions less than 12,000 lbf (53.4 kN)
  • T-Bottom: Suitable for T1 tensions greater than 12,000 lbf (53.4 kN)
The end-disc is a critical area prone to failure, especially at circumferential welds. By machining the end-disc from solid steel and integrating the hub, stress-concentration welds are minimized or eliminated. The design ensures optimal stress distribution across the end-disc and pulley.

Benefits
  • High reliability and long life due to fewer welds and reduced failure points
  • Keyless locking elements in Turbo Disc or T-Bottom designs eliminate 'Bellows Stress' from pulley end discs

Standard Design For conveyor pulleys, the area most prone to failure is the end-disc, especially where circumferential welds By machining the end-disc from solid steel plate and making the hub integral to the end-disc, all high stress-concentration welds are minimized or eliminated. In both designs, the end-discs are shaped to ensure optimum distribution of stresses throughout the Cat® Pulleys are designed for high reliability and long life: • Machined end-discs require fewer welds and provide fewer areas for failure • Utilization of keyless locking elements in conjunction with Turbo Disc or...
