Confine™ pipe conveyor belt
Steel cord conveyor belts
Designed to withstand the stresses of abusive applications, especially around tight
curves, the Confine™ pipe conveyor belt from ContiTech is both steel and textile reinforced, enabling it to meet the most demanding requirements of various pipe conveyor systems and to deliver a lower cost-per-ton conveyed.
Our Confine™ pipe conveyor belts increase productivity and reduce downtime, making them ideal for mining, timber and construction industries.

Unique pipe design
Confine™ pipe conveyor belts provide dust free transport of materials due to its closed belt ‘pipe’ design, and protect transported materials from damaging external elements like wind and rain. Unlike conventional conveyor belts, the Confine™ pipe conveyor belt uses the most innovative and advanced technology that helps to prevent common conveyor belt issues such as:
- Fatigue-induced collapse of the pipe shape
- Opening of the overlap seal
- Downward rotation of the overlap seal
Confine™ is available in the following sizes

Belt construction
Confine™ pipe conveyor belts are developed using Finite Element Analysis (FEA) modelling which enables the prediction of how specific belt designs will perform in various applications – drastically reducing downtime!
With comprehensive research, including dynamic belt testing to validate the FEA, we have the capacity to create belts to withstand the strains of a long haul, minimising downtime and increasing your profit margins!
