Flat-Flex®XT™ Extra Strength for Medium-Duty Applications |
|
|
Flat-Flex XT offers you an alternative to balanced-weave belts for medium-duty processing applications. Flat-Flex®XT™has lower belt mass than balanced weave belting styles which results in lower power consumption, faster processes, and more product thru-put.
The strength of the Flat-Flex®XT™ comes from the "Z-bend" joints in the wire mesh. As a rule, the greater the number of joints across the width of the belt, the stronger the belt.
The spacing layout on the XT features more belt joints in a given belt width than the comparable original Flat-Flex belt. This unique design better distributes the operating stresses among the belt joints for less severe "cyclic loading" or metal fatigue.
