Repair system
KK-Fix rapid belt repair
Field repair for conveyor covers, lagging and rubber components
KK-Fix is Kia-Kaha Mining's own fast-application synthetic-rubber repair system for conveyor belt covers, pulley lagging and rubber components in high-wear environments. Kia-Kaha Mining's engineering team helps maintenance teams judge whether a field-applied cover repair is the right call, so avoidable downtime is reduced without over-committing to a repair that needs a workshop.

How we select it with you
When a cover repair is the right call
KK-Fix is the right answer when the belt carcass is sound and the damage is in the cover — wear, a gouge, a longitudinal cut, a scuffed splice area, or worn pulley lagging. It is the wrong answer when the carcass is cut, a splice has failed, or the belt has lost tension integrity. Send us photographs and the details below and our team will tell you honestly which situation you are in before you commit a shutdown to it.

Buyer questions
Common questions
Field application
A belt splice covered and sealed against spillage
On a diamond-mine conveyor, a mechanically fastened splice was leaking fines at the fastener line. The splice was prepared and then covered with KK-Fix and reinforcing fabric — sealing the fastener plates so material stops working through the joint. An example only: every repair is assessed on its own photographs and belt details first.
01Splice mechanically fastened, then wire-brushed and cleaned ready for sealing.
02KK-Fix compound worked over the splice with the kit spatula, in PPE, on a stopped belt.
03Reinforcing fabric embedded into the wet compound across the fastener plates.
04Cured — the splice is covered and sealed against spillage and carry-back.
