Engineered to handle materials on inclines up to 45 degrees, offering superior rollback mitigation and wear life.
Located in the renowned Rubber Industrial Park of Boye County, Baoding, Hebei Province, Hebei Boao Rubber Technology Co., Ltd. (known widely for our premium "Jinao" brand) has stood at the absolute forefront of elastomeric technology since our founding in 2004.
We operate a modernized, state-of-the-art facility featuring rolling, calendering, high-pressure vulcanization, and material diagnostic equipment that checks raw materials up to finished multi-ply belts.
Exploring the physics and industrial realities of high-angle bulk material transportation.
In modern raw material mining, metallurgical processing, and heavy civil construction, layout optimization has become paramount. Standard flat or textured conveyor belts begin to lose transport efficiency when the inclination angle exceeds 15 to 18 degrees. Gravity overcomes the coefficient of static friction between the belt cover and bulk material, resulting in material rollback, dust generation, structural wear, and severe throughput drops.
To solve this limitation, Hebei Boao Rubber Technology supplies highly specialized Chevron Conveyor Belts. Our chevron systems are engineered with vulcanized cleats that form a V-shape or multi-chevron profile. This structural barrier allows conveyor lines to incline up to 45 degrees, which significantly reduces the structural footprint of the system.
By implementing a 30-degree chevron belt instead of a 15-degree flat belt, plants can decrease the horizontal conveying distance by approximately 45%. This results in substantial structural cost reductions, lower steel requirements, and minimal land footprint.
Depending on the density, granularity, and angle of inclination, the profile pattern depth of the Chevron belt must be tailored. The table below represents the industry standards practiced at our boye county manufacturing center:
| Profile Height (mm) | Common Cleat Profile Configurations | Ideal Material Grain Size | Max Incline Angle Range |
|---|---|---|---|
| 6mm - 12mm (Low Profile) | Open V, Close V, Multi-V, Chevron Pattern | < 30mm (Coal Fines, Sand, Grain, Fertilizers) | 20° to 28° |
| 15mm - 25mm (Medium Profile) | Closed V, Herringbone, Y-Profile | 30mm - 80mm (Aggregates, Limestone, Wood Chips) | 28° to 35° |
| 32mm (High Profile) | Open V, Deep Cleat, Heavy Duty Chevron | > 80mm (Iron Ore, Large Coal lumps, Wet Mud) | 35° to 45° |
The efficiency of chevron patterns relies on cleat design and rubber compound formulation. At Hebei Boao, we simulate friction coefficients, shear loads, and material flow dynamics to produce durable patterns.
We supply both Open V and Closed V layouts. Open V patterns allow moisture, water, and micro-particles to slide out easily, making them ideal for wet sand, aggregates, and agriculture. Closed V profiles form a stronger wall for dry materials, preventing fallback.
Many suppliers cold-glue patterns onto flat belts, leading to separation under high stress. Hebei Boao uses integral high-pressure vulcanization. The carcass and chevron cleats are molded together at our Baoding plant, creating a unified structure resistant to high shear forces.
We source high-quality natural (NR) and synthetic rubber (SBR, BR) polymers. By compounding them with advanced reinforcing carbon blacks and age-resistors, our covers achieve tensile strength over 15-25 MPa and abrasion loss under 120mm³ (DIN standards).
Mining, metallurgical plants, and chemical processing facilities expose conveyor belts to high stress, extreme temperatures, and fire risks.
Underground coal mines require conveyor belts that meet fire-retardant safety standards. Hebei Boao's Flame Retardant Rubber Conveyor Belts suppress combustion through specialized rubber compounds formulated with self-extinguishing halogens and phosphorus-based fire suppressants. These belts meet global flame-retardant standards (such as EN ISO 340, DIN 22109, and MSHA criteria), limiting propagation and extinguishing fires when the ignition source is removed.
Sintered ore, cement clinker, and steel mills transport bulk solids at temperatures from 120°C up to 200°C. Our heat-resistant chevron covers utilize ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM) and butyl rubber polymers. This formulation resists heat degradation, thermal cracking, and hardening under continuous thermal loads.
Our quality control program operates under strict ISO 9001, API, and CE guidelines to ensure all products meet standards prior to shipment.

Our conveying products are utilized in major steel mills, power generation facilities, mining complexes, and cement factories across China and global industrial markets. Below are some of our collaborative partnerships and applications:
We supply high-temperature chevron conveyor belts and impact roller support structures to manage sintered coke and hot metals under continuous operation.
Our heavy-duty steel wire rope core chevron belts handle high tonnage and coarse rock in harsh underground and open-pit environments.
We supply abrasion-resistant patterned conveyor belts to transport limestone and hot clinker from crushing plants to storage silos.
In steep civil construction setups, our 25mm Chevron V-profile belts allowed the mixing plant to transfer wet gravel aggregate at a 32-degree angle, eliminating the need for bucket elevators and reducing mechanical downtime by 40%.
A conveyor belt is only as reliable as the structure that supports it. A mismatched combination of idlers, pulleys, and brackets can cause belt misalignment, uneven wear, and high energy usage.
Hebei Boao manufactures a complete line of conveyor supporting products alongside our rubber belts:
Our idler rollers utilize dust-proof triple-labyrinth seals and heavy-duty steel pipes. This ensures smooth rotation under heavy dynamic loads. We also supply ceramic and buffering impact rollers that absorb energy at loading zones, protecting the belt carcass from puncture damage.
Our brackets are manufactured using standardized dimensions to accommodate all conveyor belt widths. We supply centering brackets, groove brackets, and tensioning brackets that maintain stable alignment under varying load distributions.
Global industrial operators face varying regulatory and standard requirements depending on their jurisdiction. We align our manufacturing processes with international frameworks to support local operations:
Additionally, our technical support extends beyond manufacturing. We supply complete Technical Service Plans covering:
Technicians analyze structural setups, wear patterns, and drive pulley mechanics.
Engineers customize rubber formulations and chevron profiles for the application.
We supply hot vulcanizing kits and cold-bonding solutions to ensure high joint strength.
After-sales support monitors belt thickness, cover wear, and structural wear.
The industrial conveying industry is shifting towards smart diagnostics and circular materials. Hebei Boao is investing in next-generation R&D to prepare for these trends:
We are testing smart conveyor belts embedded with RFID microchips and electromagnetic loop sensors. These loops detect carcass damage or longitudinal tears early, triggering emergency shuts to prevent catastrophic damage.
We are developing intelligent idler rollers with integrated temperature and vibration sensors. These sensors alert maintenance teams to failing bearings before they lock up and cause friction damage to the belt.
To reduce carbon footprints, we are incorporating devulcanized recycled polymers into our non-structural backing covers. This reduces raw material consumption without compromising top-cover performance.
