VEE BAND

Banded version, eliminates belt whip and turnover onclassical drives. Banding process insures smooth

operation. Eliminates need for matched sets on mostdrives. Oil and heat resistant, static dissipating.

COG-BAND

Banded version combines the longer life and superiorperformance of the Cog-Belt with the stability of banded

construction. Oil and heat resistant, static dissipating.

WEDGE-BAND

The banded version of the Power Wedge belt for narrowdrives where belt whip or turnover is a problem. Elimi-

nates need for matched sets on most drives. Oil andheat resistant, static dissipating.

These belting specifications are primarily used to convey bulk materials in troughed convey- ors. Common uses include crushed rock, grain, and coal. Black rubber covers protect the fabric carcass from abrasion. Oil resistant and heat resistant compounds are available for conveying materials such as asphalt or hot foundry sand. The grain compound is moderately oil resistant, highly conductive of static electricity and fire retardant.

PVC Conveyor and Elevator Belting

Our PVC belting is used extensively in slider bed conveyors moving boxed or bagged prod- ucts and in lighter duty bulk material handling applications such as seed corn facilities. Working tensions of 250 Ibs. and above are ideally suited for bucket elevators due to the low stretch and excellent bolt-holding properties of these belts. The fabric reinforcement consists of interwoven polyester yarns which are impregnated with PVC.

Food Handling Belt

All food handling belts are made with F.D.A. approved materials and also are approved by the U.S.D.A. for contact with meat and poultry. The polyester-reinforced nitrile belts are the standard of the food industry. Cotton-polyester belts are used where pulley diameters are very small and conveyor length is short.

Transmission and Industrial Belting

These specifications have been used for many years to transmit power between flat-faced pulleys. The belting is also used to convey packages, boxes, etc., and to power live roller conveyors. Neoprene belts are recommended when oil is present. Tan Sliptop has a special low-friction top that allows product to slide off easily or permits the belting to run smoothly while the conveyed material remains stationary.

Incline Belting

Roughtop is the most commonly used impression top belt and is used in a wide variety of package handling applications. It is also often used to lag drive pulleys. Roughtop is avail- able in rubber or in PVC for jobs requiring greater cut resistance. Steeplok and Ridge Top have more “grab” than Roughtop and will convey materials on steeper inclines or declines. Chevron Top is an economical incline belt with good release characteristics.

Monofilament Belting

The standard types of these polyurethane belts offer covers with excellent oil and greaseresistance in addition to a higher temperature range than that of PVC. Other constructionsare rubber, PVC, polyester, PTFE, and anti-static belts.

Special Application Belting

Our specifications include round belting, all polyester belting, nylon core belting and nylonleather belting. Consult your salesperson for recommendations on your applications.

Corrugated Sidewall Belting

Corrugated sidewall belts move four times more material than troughedconveyor belts and cost less to operate and maintain.
