Currently, the widespread use of tubular belt conveyors is constrained by insufficient justification of the conveyor parameters. In the work, on the basis of the theory of the limiting equilibrium state of bulk load, equations of equilibrium of load on the belt of an inclined tubular conveyor are obtained. It is assumed that the belt was a rigid cylinder filled with bulk material in extreme equilibrium. Based on the obtained equilibrium equation, the analytical dependences of the limiting angle of inclination of the belt conveyor with a tubular belt on the degree of unfilling with the bulk load of the belt and the properties of the bulk load are found. From the analysis of these dependencies it follows that the limiting angle of inclination of the tubular belt conveyor depends on the angle of internal friction of the transported load, the angle of friction of the load on the conveyor belt, the angle of unfilling of the belt with load and does not depend on the radius of the conveyor belt.
