The flat belt, also known as a flat transmission belt, is one of the most widely used types of industrial conveyor belts, sharing similar broad applications with rubber synchronous belts and PU synchronous belts. The versatility of flat belts even exceeds that of synchronous belts. What are the requirements regarding the thickness, tensile strength, pulley diameter, and other parameters for flat belts? Below, we present a reference table provided by RoyalCorp detailing the various specifications for flat belts-including thickness, tensile strength, pulley dimensions, and primary application fields (for reference only; please consult RoyalCorp personnel directly for specific information).

PU sheet-based basebands have a wide range of applications. (Flat drive belt) – Its elongation rate is significantly lower than that of other sheet-type belts. Generally used in coaxial drive systems and transmission assemblies with a relatively long belt length. For example: equipment for the printing industry; equipment for the textile industry (e.g., spinning machines, twisting machines, etc.). |
