Hoverdale make conveyor drive drums to order. We work hard to find the right solution for each customer to build drums that fit with the maintenance pattern of their systems. Drive drums are fabricated in a number of ways to ensure the correct life of the drum & the conveyor system. These include:
- Plain
- Lagged with rubber
- Lagged with a rubber/ceramic composite
- Lagged with hard metals for long-life applications
To provide a service that gives excellent results every time Hoverdale relies on our range systems and our 40 years of experience to give our customers the best results at the best price.
We are specialist problem solvers and our systems work where others fail. We are confident in our conveyor drive drums and we invite you to present us with your problems to solve.
