With his 30 years of experience, Bob Gabel has perfected a method to reclaim used rubber conveyor belt from the mining industry. This rubber belting is made by using the highest quality rubber and bonding it to steel cables which run laterally through the belt. This process produces a product which is very unique for providing rubber flooring in dairy and horse operations. Rubber flooring greatly reduces concrete stress related to problems occurring in the legs and feet of cows confined to free stall dairy facilities.
The steel cables keep the rubber from stretching and buckling caused by constant livestock traffic and skidsteer scraper machines. The belt stays in place and will last indefinitely as compared to the shorter life of some new manufactured rubber products available today, Unlike these newer manufactured products, the steel cabled rubber belting has a much greater toughness This provides for a solid rubber floor effect that is a safe, popular alternative to concrete in the industry.
Once the belt is reclaimed from the mine, it is shipped to our processing yard in Chaffee, NY. With machines developed by Bob Gabel in Chaffee, the belts are processed and prepared . The belts are passed through a grooving machine which highly improved the footing for your animals once it is installed in the typically wet environment of free stall operations. The belt is ready for a custom made fit once it arrives at the farm for a custom fit in the feeder alleys and milk holding area.
Each belt is processed and prepared for a custom made fit and shipped to the farm ready for installation. Gabel Belting, Inc. with their professionally trained crew personally install your belt to their satisfaction and yours.
