RECOMMENDATIONS:
AC & MF nylon buckets are ideal for use
with foundry sand, gravel, coal, fertilizer, clay, salt, and many other
industrial materials.
INTERCHANGEABILITY:
Can be intermixed with existing cast iron,
fabricated steel, or nonmetallic buckets. Some care should be
taken that the leg does not become too far out of balance. Bucket
projection varies by manufacturer and material. Check elevator for
proper clearances. Contact Tapco for recommendations.
INSTALLATION:
On belt:
Fanged elevator bolts and nylon insert lock
nuts are recommended.
Large flat (fender) steel washers must be
placed inside the bucket under the nuts.
On chain
: Use Grade 5 hex head bolts with hex nuts, large flat (fender)
washers, and lock washers.
Elevator bolts should not be used on
chain attachments.
CAUTION:
Welding and cutting on elevator legs without taking proper
precautions is extremely dangerous and can cause a violent explosion.
