Tapered Unflanged Backplates

Tapered unflanged backplates are crafted to cover belt or chain drives with tapered profiles where flanged edges are not required. The tapered design allows these backplates to fit securely along angled or irregular machinery surfaces, providing effective protection while maintaining a streamlined profile. Mounting holes are included for easy installation, and custom sizing is available to accommodate unique equipment dimensions. Tapered unflanged backplates offer reliable safety and a clean appearance for specialized guarding applications.
