Vise lacer tools are ideal for small jobs. Designed to fit a standard
bench vise. The OSV-1 is a 6" tool for the hook series while
"2-7" series is available in both 4" and 6". The OSV-4 is very popular
for haybalers.

| Locate the belt between the hook Points and hold it firmly against the hook retainer while closing the vise. | Close the vise by turning the screw tight enough to embed the hooks into the belt. | To obtain maximum splice strength us the Pressure Plate to clinch the belt hooks. Back off the vise screw to allow for inspection of the Pressure Plate. Retighten Vise, working the Pressure Plate across the entire splice. |
| METAL SELECTION | SPECIAL APPLICATIONS |
|---|---|
| Galvanized High Tensile The standard, providing excellent use life. Good for abrasion utilizing medium carbon steel. Galvanizing provides some resistance to elements. Magnetic and poor chemical resistance. |
There are a vast number of special applications for Wiregrip Belt Hooks where specific design changes en- hance the performance of the final product. These may be changes in metal, point configuration, length of leg, etc. Also, special card lengths can be provided for ap- plications to avoid time in cutting down the carded hooks. |

| 430 Stainless A magnetic stainless steel that offers some corrosion and chemical resistance over galvanized steel. Will not rust in food and agricultural applications. Can be used with magnetic separation devices. |
Wiregrip Hook Design The standard products have been designed to provide exceptional service over time. However, just as specific engineering may have been optimized for the equipment and belt, finite design changes can be made to optimize the life of the belt splice. |

| 316 Stainless A high nickel chrome stainless steel that offers excel- lent resistance to corrosion from acids and chemicals, also good for mechanical abrasions. Excellent for use where food and sanitation requirements are high. Basi- cally non-magnetic. |
Factors to be considered are the belt construction, fab- ric, compound (rubber-PVC-urethane), plies, cover thick- nesses, tensile strength. Application details to be ana- lyzed include drive, take-up, tail section, snubbing pul- leys, surfaces the belt may travel over. The frequency of the starting and stopping, the loading, environment, and objects being conveyed all influence the selection. |
