In general, the Bulk-Toter will handle any dry, free-flowing bulk material with a density of from 20 to 120 pounds per cubic foot, a size of from 1/16" (1.5 mm) to 1" (25 mm), and with an abrasiveness from mild to moderate.  Although higher abrasive materials can be conveyed with the Bulk-Toter, they decrease the life of the conveyor's components and void the warranty.  The conveyor is well suited for corrosive materials, as the body and separator plates are made of stainless steel as a standard.  An all stainless steel chain is also available.
