Hinged Plategrip X550-30S is a stainless steel bolt hinged belt fastener for belts 1/4" to 5/8" on pulleys 9" and larger, rated to 300 PIW. The hinged joint separates by removing the hinge pin, allowing belt sections to be added or removed without tools.

What is in the package:

• 1 matched plate pair (top plate with pre-attached bolts and bottom plate) sized for 30" belt
• Nuts sized to the bolts
• 1 hinge pin sized for 30" belt width
• Filler tubing (the cable threaded through hinge pin loops)
• Installation instructions

This is a complete fastener set ready to splice one 30-inch belt joint.

Common applications: stainless Hinged Plategrip is specified where corrosion resistance matters alongside the portability of a separable joint. Typical uses include potash and salt mining, fertilizer processing, food handling and wash-down lines, chemical plants, marine environments, and outdoor portable conveyors exposed to weather.

Material: Stainless steel resists corrosion from chlorides, acids, wash-down chemicals, and humid or marine atmospheres. The stainless construction also resists pitting and fastener fatigue in environments that would degrade carbon steel fasteners over weeks or months. Pair with a stainless hinge pin (X375NCS or X550NCS) and stainless retainer washers for a fully corrosion-resistant splice.
