Polyurethane Truly Endless FLEX Timing Belts
FLEX (Truly Endless) are customized drive or transport timing belts.
The belts are manufactured with truly endless tension member. The unique high-tech manufacturing process allows the production of every belt length to a maximum of 22 000 mm. Having no splice or welding, the belts have no weak cross section. They are therefore ideal for high speed power transmission and high load conveying applications. They are manufactured with the teeth and bottom from thermoplastic polyurethane with excellent wear resistance and with high tensile strength steel tension member, in special cases with kevlar or stainless steel tension member. Various surface layers and attachments can be welded or glued on the belts.
Belts Construction
- Endless steel cord tension member
- Polyurethane teeth and backing
Belts Fields of Use
Endless polyurethane timing belts are used in all areas of industry as drive or transport belts, in linear drives, positioning and lifting devices.
They are most commonly used in the automotive, textile, glass, ceramic or woodworking industries, as well as in cable companies as drive or towing belts.
Belts Characteristics
- High transmitted power and long service life
- Resistant to oil, petrol, benzene, UV radiation and ozone
- Abrasioon-resistant
- Maintenance-free
- Temperature range, depending on application, from -30 °C to +80 °C
