Fastens to belt with hinge rods. No other fasteners required.
Sideguards are installed with the back ends angled inward, toward the product. This is called a product-friendly orientation. On request, the back ends can be angled outward, toward the conveyor sides.
When going around the 8-, 12-, 16-, and 18-tooth sprockets, sideguards fan out, opening a gap at the top that can allow small products to fall out. The sideguards stay completely closed when wrapping around the 24-tooth and larger sprockets.
Standard gap between sideguards and flight edge: 0.2 in (5 mm)
