Lightweight Stainless Steel Conveyor Wear Cap - 3" Channel (for 3' Filler Sections)
This Lightweight Stainless Steel Conveyor Wear Cap for 3" Channels is an essential protective component meticulously designed to extend the lifespan of specific sections of your car wash conveyor system's frame. It is engineered to fit directly over the 3" channel conveyor frame cross members within 3-foot filler sections, which are typically found in more recently installed conveyor systems (within the last year or so).
Constructed entirely from high-quality stainless steel, this conveyor cap offers exceptional durability and superior corrosion resistance against water and chemicals present in the harsh car wash tunnel environment. While the underlying conveyor frame may still be subject to rust over time, this cap significantly prolongs the frame's life by taking the brunt of operational wear and tear. It helps reduce the frequency of costly repairs and replacements of the main frame. Despite its robust protection, the cap maintains a lightweight profile, ensuring it does not add unnecessary strain to the conveyor structure. It is crucial for sites to verify their filler frame sections (looking for 3" channels) before ordering, as all other cross members (including 10ft sections, take-up, and drive sections) will require the 5" channel caps (P-S-0517). This cap is a proactive solution for maintaining the structural integrity and operational efficiency of your conveyor system, though continued normal maintenance is recommended for optimal performance.
For any conveyor frames over 6 months old, please contact our Client Services team at (616) 795-4893 or Clientservices@tommycarwash.com to determine what size conveyor frame caps you need for your conveyor system.
