General Features

Turtle Plates are the "new generation" of plates which were developed in response to the underground mining industry's demand for a strong domed plate that was lighter, easy to install and safe to use.

Turtle Plates are complementary to DSI dome balls in overcoming the problems of surface angularity and provide a good torque tension ratio to be obtained.

  • The rounded configuration of the Turtle Plate provides infinite positioning of the washer on the W Strap without infringing upon the W Strap vees.
  • The Turtle Plate and dome ball assembly provides up to 180 angle of tilt.
  • Australian Patent No. 684644 is applicable to DSI Turtle Plates.
  • Australian Registered Design Numbers 125582 and 128628 are applicable to the minor bundle plastic clips.

Packaging

  • Turtle Plates are packed together on special carrying clamps and then palletised.
