Belt Cleaners

NEW! The Uni-Blade

Revolutionizing belt cleaning—no more hunting for replacement blades!

The American Eagle Uni‑Blade is a next‑generation primary belt cleaner that eliminates costly blade replacement guesswork.

The patented bolt-on system (PN 12246927) lets you upgrade any primary cleaner—no matter the OEM—with a sturdy urethane blade that installs in minutes using standard hardware.

Key Features:

• Universal retro‑fit design: Simply share your current cleaner model and we’ll tailor the Uni‑Blade to match—bolt-on compatibility, without adapters.
• No special tools required: Installs via standard nuts & bolts—no clamps, cartridges, or tension tools needed.
• Custom blade width: Tailored to your exact material path—removing smiley-curve blade ends for better contact, longer life.
• Patented bolt-on replacement: Replace the entire blade as a single unit—no parts ordering—just loosen bolts, swap blade, and re-tighten.
• Quality urethane options: Choose between standard orange or blue Ev‑R‑Wear, engineered for high abrasion environments.
• MSHA-ready: Compatible with rugged belt applications, including mine-duty requirements.

Belt Cleaner Basics

Primary Cleaners

Primary cleaners are the first line of defense in maintaining the cleanliness and efficiency of conveyor belts in industrial settings. Installed at the head pulley, they remove the bulk of material carryback. Therefore, less material sticks to the belt and causes issues. Because the belt stays free of large debris, the risk of slippage and spillage drops. This makes the workplace safer, too. This approach also minimizes maintenance downtime and extends belt life, leading to real cost savings. Above all, robust primary cleaners keep conveyor systems running smoothly and safely.

Secondary Cleaners

Secondary cleaners are crucial for enhancing the performance and longevity of conveyor belts in industrial environments. Positioned after the primary cleaner, these cleaners provide a second level of cleaning, effectively removing any remaining fines and smaller debris that the primary cleaner might have missed. As a result, the belt runs smoothly, with less buildup that could cause slippage or system failures. By maintaining a cleaner belt, secondary cleaners help to create a safer workplace by minimizing hazards associated with material spillage. Additionally, they contribute to lower maintenance costs and extended belt life, resulting in significant financial savings. So high-quality secondary cleaners are a smart investment, improving both safety and efficiency.

Tertiary Cleaners

Tertiary cleaners deliver the highest level of cleanliness for conveyor belt systems. Positioned further along the conveyor line, they remove the finest residual material that primary and secondary cleaners may miss. By ensuring a virtually spotless belt, tertiary cleaners help prevent any material buildup that could compromise the belt’s performance and lead to operational disruptions. This comprehensive cleaning approach improves conveyor efficiency. Likewise, it promotes a safer work environment by reducing spillage and related hazards. Additionally, keeping the belt in top condition with tertiary cleaners extends its lifespan, reducing the need for frequent maintenance and replacement, thereby saving costs. Most importantly, high-quality tertiary cleaners maximize productivity and safety.

Specialty Cleaners

Specialty belt cleaners, such as the American Eagle Manufacturing Poly-Star, offer unparalleled efficiency and durability for conveyor systems in industrial applications. For instance, the Poly-Star design removes even the most challenging materials from cleated belts. Moreover, the design minimizes belt wear, which extends belt life and reducing maintenance needs. By maintaining a pristine belt, specialty cleaners like the Poly-Star contribute to a safer work environment, minimizing the risk of material spillage and associated hazards. Additionally, these high-performance cleaners help optimize conveyor system efficiency, leading to reduced downtime and increased productivity. Investing in specialty belt cleaners like the American Eagle Manufacturing Poly-Star is a smart choice for challenging applications.
