ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a splice for high tension belts in which the ends of the belt are curved at about right angles to the belt. Plates are placed on the outside of the two belt ends, spacer bushings are placed between the plates and through apertures in the belt ends, bolts are placed through holes in the two plates and through the spacer bushings, and the bolts are tightened, causing the plates to press against the spacer bushings. The bolts are pretensioned by tightening them to a predetermined tension which is higher than the tension experienced during operation.
