5-8721 is a 2-ply black conveyor belt for general purpose belting, heavy duty belting, incline belting.
Mulhern Belting’s 5-8721 features a continuous chevron profile engineered for reliable movement of free-flowing bulk materials on inclines. The uninterrupted pattern provides strong directional grip, while the belt’s construction allows it to negotiate small pulley diameters, expanding its compatibility across various equipment types.

Tubeveyors
Railcar unloading systems
Agricultural handling (grain, corn, soy, feed)
Packaging and bulk transfer equipment
The chevron profile excels with loose materials that require controlled movement without slippage—making it ideal for grain, gravel, powders, pellets, and other flowable commodities.
This belt is also commonly paired with Street Sweeper cleats when additional lift or aggressive material collection is required.
