Long lasting and durable, the Exterra belt scraper from Superior Industries offers high performance in conveyor installations
A new and more durable belt cleaner is available from conveyor specialist 2979 Superior Industries. This belt scraper is designed to offer extended cleaning capabilities and fewer change-outs. The Exterra cleaner features more urethane and is said to offer a bulky profile and a beefy tip, all of which extends life.
