ISO 10247:1990/Amd 1:2006 is an amendment to the international standard that defines the classification of conveyor belt cover characteristics. Amendment 1 clarifies the standard's scope by explicitly stating that it is not applicable to light conveyor belts as defined in ISO 21183-1. The amendment also adds ISO 21183-1 to the bibliographical references in Annex A. The change was prepared by ISO/TC 41 (Pulleys and belts), Subcommittee SC 3 (Conveyor belts).
This document is relevant for manufacturers, specifiers, procurement teams and quality engineers working with conveyor belts in industrial and bulk-material handling applications. It provides a harmonized reference for classifying cover materials and communicating requirements across suppliers and users.
This amendment and the underlying standard are useful for:
For practitioners, the practical value of ISO 10247:1990/Amd 1:2006 lies in improved clarity when classifying conveyor belt covers, stronger alignment between suppliers and users, and a direct pointer to the appropriate standard for light belts (ISO 21183-1). Always cross-reference both documents when developing specifications or conducting technical evaluations.
