The Slide-Lag Formula...
provides specially compounded elastomer padding vulcanized under high pressure to
heavy-gauge steel plates which are shaped to conform to each pulley face. The plates
slide in and out of special retainers which have been securely welded or bolted to the
pulley face.

1. Exclusive elastomer compounding provides a lagging pad with exceptional drive-pulley traction, abuse resistance and extra long service life. The elastomer retains its integrity under the most severe operating conditions.
2. Factory hot-vulcanization under pressure assures the best possible bond of rubber to backing plate. No lagging failures from loss of adhesion and separation --- the most common problems associated with conventional lagging.
3. Steel backing plates are precision formed at the factory to fit the curved surface provided by each individual pulley diameter. Insures proper pad stability and long life.
4. Rust-resistant metal retainers are permanently welded or bolted to the pulley face to securely hold the lagging pads in place. When properly installed, lagging cannot shift or pull free from the effects of impact, trapped material, or belt or product movement.
These four special features make Slide-Lag products the most unique and reliable system for all conveyor and elevator pulleys. Slide-Lag can be installed on the job, usually without removing either the belt or pulleys from the system. Eventual replacement of worn or damaged pads is even quicker and easier, since the retainers are already in place.
The Economy of Readily Available SLIDE-LAG
![]()
Slide-Lag is inventoried in standard factory produced lengths by EBM Mill & Elevator Supply. This offers system owners new economies by eliminating the need for in-plant stocks of lagging and/or extra lagged pulleys. Owners may also economize by installing the lagging themselves, using either of the following methods of application: (1) The "butt seam" method, which utilizes all material cut from full pad lengths. The ends of each cut piece are butted together. Butt seam application is usually the most economical approach to use. (2) The "full width" method, in which each pad row is provided with full face width pads that have no butt seams (except on pulleys over 72" wide, where a butt seam is used at the pulley center line). Absence of butt seams is attractive, but offers no performance advantage over the less costly butt seam application method. Installation instructions are available for either method.
