Rubber Conveyor Belts
Structure and Materials
These belts are made from natural or synthetic rubber (such as neoprene or SBR) and reinforced with fabric layers (cotton, nylon, or polyester) or steel cords. The surface can be smooth, textured, or grooved.
Features
High resistance to abrasion, impact, tension, and varying temperatures (-40°C to +120°C). Resistance to oil and acids can be adjusted depending on the rubber type.
Applications
• Mining (transporting stones and coal)
• Cement and steel factories
• Recycling lines and handling of abrasive materials
Additional Specifications
Widths range from 20 cm to over 2 meters, with thicknesses from 5 to 20 mm. Multi-ply models are designed for heavy loads.There are two main surface patterns for rubber conveyor belts:
• Smooth
• Textured (Cleated)
