Describes a static test method for measuring the strength of a conveyor belt mechanical fastening; the mechanical joints can be either of the type employing a connecting rod or of a type which does not employ a connecting rod.

This International Standard specifies a static test method for measuring the strength of a conveyor belt mechanical fastening; the mechanical joints can be either of the type employing a connecting rod or of a type which does not employ a connecting rod.

This International Standard does not cover vulcanized joints.

This International Standard is neither applicable to nor valid for light conveyor belts, as described in ISO21183-1.

NOTE The purpose of the test specified in this International Standard is to eliminate mechanical fastenings of insufficient static strength. It is intended to establish a dynamic test at a later date.
