| SAFETY CHAINS | INTEGRAL WIND GUARDS | WIND SKIRT ANGLES W/GASKET – |
 |
 |
 |
| Available for all hinged smooth covers and recommended for above grade applications. Safety chains allow the hoods to be retrieved easily and prevent the covers from becoming inaccessible if the covers are not secured in the 45° open position. |
By increasing the length of the covers and support bands, these wind guards protect the return belt. Wind guards can be either on the prevailing wind side or on both sides. These can be made in a variety of lengths (as required) | These special angles close the approx. 2-7/8″ gap from the bottom of the cover to the top of the channel/stringer. These wind skirt angles allow our standard eye bolts to be used without altering our standard CH series design. |
ANGLE TO CHANNEL FASTENERS –
5/8″ x 2-1/4″ bolts with hex nuts, lock washers, flat washers and bevel washers may be
required to mount the support bands to the channel or stringer. (RPS recommends the
support bands be evenly spaced between the carrying idlers.)
2 PIECE MOUNTING BRACKETS –
For RPS CH-series covers – These mounting brackets allow clearance for our eye bolts when
covers are mounted on trusses fabricated with wide “I n T” beams or various other
obstructions.
