Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO
member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical
committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has
the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in
liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical
Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 3.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted
by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International
Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this International Standard may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 1120 was prepared by the European Committee for Standardization (CEN) in collaboration with Technical
Committee ISO/TC 41, Pulleys and belts (including veebelts), Subcommittee SC 3, Conveyor belts, in accordance
with the Agreement on technical cooperation between ISO and CEN (Vienna Agreement).
Throughout the text of this document, read ".this European Standard." to mean ".this International Standard.".
This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition (ISO 1120:1984), which has been technically revised.

1 Scope

This European Standard specifies a static test method for measuring the strength of a conveyor belt
mechanical fastening; the mechanical joints can be either of the type employing a connecting rod or of a
type which does not employ a connecting rod.

This standard does not cover vulcanized joints.

NOTE  The purpose of the test specified in this standard is to eliminate mechanical fastenings of insufficient static
strength. A dynamic test will be established at a later date.

The standard is not applicable or valid for light conveyor belts as described in EN 873.
2 Normative references

publications. These normative references are cited at the appropriate places in the text, and the
