Flat Belts are power transmission belts made from rubber, synthetic materials, canvas, or leather. They are used in industrial equipment and conveyor systems for torque transmission. Thanks to their design, they have excellent grip, making them ideal for high-speed drives. Furthermore, they are flexible (suitable for small pulley diameters) and extremely efficient (above 99%).
Rubber Flat Belts
Initially, they replaced leather belts due to problems with stretching and splicing, but later lost their primacy due to demanding production. Today, modern flat belts feature improved elasticity and superior grip, making them crucial for demanding high-speed drives. Compared to V-belts, they are more efficient, experience less wear, and are more versatile in various industrial applications.
Composition of Flat Belts:
They are available in various widths, lengths, and thicknesses for all types of applications.
