In the majority of cases, the conveyor belt primary cleaner is positioned on the head pulley, which is where the material leaves the belt. The purpose of primary cleaners is to remove any coarser material stuck to the conveyor belt after it leaves the head pulley, and to keep the belt as clean as possible. Long-lasting primary cleaners are engineered to conform even to worn belts while also minimizing overall belt wear. The serrated edge feature ensures the tool stays sharp to the end of its service life. Overall results are less waste and prolonged utility — positively contributing to your sustainability priorities.
Metso Outotec supplies different sizes of conveyor systems depending on the volume of material to be conveyed. Belt speed, belt size and pulley diameter all vary.
We do not classify our solutions according to industry segments, but rather according to the application within the segment. That’s because we’ve noticed 70% - 80% of conveyors used in mining are at the smaller end of the scale, even though this is where you also find some of the biggest conveyors. In other words, the application counts more than the industry.
Whether you need the very smallest solution (with cleaners of 1 kilo) or the very biggest (with cleaners of 20 kilos) or something in between the two, Metso Outotec has a product for you.

Follow these steps to find an optimal primary cleaner for your application.
If the application temperature is above 70°C or below -30°C, the type of the belt spice is not vulcanized, or the belt is reversing instead of one-way, please contact your Metso Outotec representative.

The ABC-ONE90 is suitable for many applications in construction (mediumduty, e.g. limestone) and mining (light-duty, e.g. sand and gravel).The tensioner/mainframe is compatible with our ABC-ONE70, and the product is also compatible with a huge installed base of other manufacturers’ cleaners and mainframes.
Material properties
This basic standard product is made of two polyurethane materials, only one of which is in contact with the belt. The stronger polyurethane makes the product structurally stable, so it does not need steel inserts.
Special features
The cleaner’s serrated edge ensures the tool stays sharp to the end of its service life. At that point, you can dispose of the tool safely simply by incineration, without needing to separate any steel.

Trellex ABC-ONE70 is suitable for use with iron ore, crushed granite or materials that stick to the belt, such as clay. The tensioner/mainframe is compatible with our ABC-ONE90, which gives you the flexibility to change cleaners if necessary.
The ABC-ONE70 is also compatible with a huge installed base of other manufacturers’ cleaners and mainframes and, due to dual hardness, offers an even longer lifetime.
Material properties
Designed with a combination of materials to give you an effective, stable cleaner with a long service. The soft edge is made of a special kind of polyurethane that has been engineered specifically for use in belt cleaners.
This part is moulded to a harder section, consisting of a more rigid polyurethane, that gives the cleaner its firm structure.
Special features
The cleaner’s dual-hardness function (the so-called ‘spatula effect’) is patented. This combination of softness and strength makes Trellex ABCONE70 the world’s best cleaner for highly abrasive materials. The softness
of the material in contact with the belt allows it to adapt to the surface contours (even if the belt is old and worn), thus minimising wear.

Trellex ABC95 is designed specifically for handling light materials such as pulp, paper and wood.
Material properties
This cleaner is made of a harder polyurethane material capable of stripping materials such as resin (e.g. from wood) adhering to the belt.
Special features
The ABC95 has a modular design that enables it to be combined in a cassette. The cleaner edge is serrated to ensure the tool stays sharp to the end of its service life. The tensioner and mainframe are compatible with our ABC70 and ABC90, so you always have an option to test other polyurethane materials if necessary.

The ABC90 is a basic product suitable for the most common light- and medium-duty applications for materials such as soft rock and low-abrasive ores (e.g. bauxite and copper) in mining and aggregates.
Material properties
The ABC90 uses engineered polyurethane for effective scraping and a long service life. In real-life tests, products made of 90 Shore Trellex polyurethane last up to 30% longer than competing products.
Special features
The cleaner edge is serrated to ensure the tool stays sharp to the end of its service life. The product is segmented rather than continuous, enabling the segments to move individually and making it easy to join them together.

The ABC70 is suitable for applications with materials that are very abrasive (e.g. iron ore) or tend to adhere to the belt (e.g. clay). The combination of softness and strength is the world’s best for these kinds of applications in this size category.
Material properties
The ABC70 is made of two different kinds of polyurethane. The soft blue edge is specially engineered for use in belt cleaners, where greater softness extends the service life.
The edge is moulded to the much harder yellow part, which provides structural strength and rigidity. The result is a stable, long-lasting and effective cleaner.
Special features
The cleaner’s dual-hardness function comprises a desirable combination of softness and stability that delivers an extended service life because the softness of the material helps it conform to the belt surface.

The ABC-HMS is a premium product designed for the most aggressive applications where there is a risk of materials such as crushed flint or recycled glass cutting the polyurethane.
Material properties
The tip is made of purpose-engineered extra-fine tungsten carbide instead of polyurethane. This material gives you an excellent combination of strength and toughness. A special additive enhances its resistance to corrosion.
Special features
Tungsten is one of the ultimate wear materials. Our purposeengineered extra-fine carbide grade cannot be cut, and delivers an extended service life.

The ABC70-HD is suitable for use with materials such as granite or iron ore in the mining and aggregates industry. It is also suitable for use where the pulley diameter exceeds 600 mm.
Material properties
This product is larger than a normal ABC70 cleaner. The HD designation indicates that it has an extended service life due to its volume, which in turn gives you a higher percentage of wear material.
Special features
The patented dual-hardness function comprises a desirable combination of softness and stability that delivers an extended service life because the softness of the material helps it conform to the belt surface.

The ABC90-HD-L is suitable for heavy duty in the most demanding applications such as hard rock mining. It can deal with a wide range of materials on faster and wider belts, and is suitable for pulley diameters of 800 - 1600 mm.
Material properties
Weighing 8 kg, this cleaner has an obvious size advantage over most competing products. It offers a long service life handling large volumes of demanding materials.
Special features
The ABC90-HD-L has a mainshaft, but does not require an aluminium cassette. It uses an L tensioner instead of an S tensioner, so you can locate the tensioner either nearby or at a distance and on either side of the pulley, giving you enormous layout flexibility.
The product is available with an anti-rollback (AR) accessory. This prevents the cleaner from moving backwards (i.e. away from the belt) in conditions such as high belt speeds and wet applications.

The ABC70-HD-L is suitable for use with materials such as granite or iron ore in the mining and aggregates industry. It is also suitable for use where the pulley diameter exceeds 800 mm.
Material properties
This product is larger than a normal ABC70-HD cleaner. The L designation indicates that it has an extended service life due to its volume, which in turn gives you a higher percentage of wear material.

The ABC90-HD-XL is designed for heavy duty in the most extreme applications, such as hard rock mining. Suitable for pulley diameters 1000 - 2000 mm, it can handle both wide and high-speed belts.
Material properties
Constructed from 90 Shore polyurethane, the ABC90-HD-XL is a herculean scraper. It can withstand temperature ranges from -30 °C to +70 °C as well as the extremely tough wear that comes with high belt speeds and oversized pulleys.
Special features
Weighing in at 20 kg, this scraper has an obvious size advantage over other products. It also comes with an optional anti-rollback device, which prevents the scraper from losing contact with the belt at high speeds or in wet applications. And since you can place the tensioner anywhere, the ABC90-HD-XL also offers an unusual
degree of installation flexibility.
