Steel cord belts

Steel cord belts

Longitudinally along the belt, 7×7 or 7×19, according to the diameter necessary to obtain the required resistance of the belt. Structures with metal breakers, depending on their applications, might be added to the covers of the belt. Belts with Fleximat® mesh.

“ST” TYPE STEELCORD BELTS

They incorporate steelcord tensioning longitudinally along the belt, and are normally used in large mining installations. They are often of great dimensions in length and capacity.

The steel cord’s stress resistance makes this type of belt ideal for the mentioned applications. Furthermore, these belts also provide us with several additional advantages:

• This type of belt has very low elongation values, thus facilitating the construction of installations many kilometres long.
• More fexible than their equivalent with fabric reinforcement, they require drums with smaller diameters.
• They have greater perforation resistance. They are not subject to deformation either due to discontinuous heavy loads or external agents such as heat, cold, and humidity, thus ensuring the belt moves in a straight aligned fashion.
• They admit rubber coatings of any required thickness. Breakages such as longitudinal slitting, damaged sides, or holes are easily repaired by hot vulcanisation, which guarantees the belt’s long life.
