Furnace Belt Company (FBC) manufactures a broad range of round wire conveyor
belt and flat wire conveyor belt. Mesh belting from FBC is used in many
applications, particularly in high temperature conveying and low temperature
conveying for industrial ovens, furnaces, freezer tunnels, plating tanks,
etc.
The
round wire mesh belt we supply is available in many weave patterns. Balanced
weave belt consists of a series of alternating single left-hand and right-hand
spirals joined together by a cross-rod connector. Double balanced weave
belt consists of a series of alternating double left-hand and right-hand
spirals joined together by a straight or crimped cross-rod connector. Rod
reinforced weave belt consists of single directional spirals inter-woven
into the preceding spirals. The spirals are "reinforced" by the insertion
of a straight or "U" cross-rod connector inserted through its vertices.
Double rod reinforced weave belt is an assembly of double spirals, usually
right-hand, inter-woven into a preceding pair. The spirals are reinforced
by a straight cross-rod connector passing through its vertices. Compound
balanced weave belt consists of a series of alternating left-hand and right-hand
spirals fastened by a straight cross-rod connector. The close nesting of
the spirals this belt ideal for carrying very small parts, such as nuts,
bolts, screws, nails, cookies, etc. The FBC conventional weave consists
of single directional spirals inter-woven into the preceding spirals. This
weave is the most economical of all weaves and it can be made with very
large or small openings. Gratex weave belt consists of a series of alternating
single left-hand and right-hand spirals joined together by straight cross-rod
connectors. Flattened wire belting is an assembly of spirals that are made
of round wire that has been flattened somewhat, prior to weaving. This
wire can be made into any weave to create a very flat belt, thus reducing
belt stretch, which occurs with regular round wire. It creates a smooth
carrying surface for small unstable parts.
The
Furnace Belt Company also manufactures a range of flat wire belting. Our
standard duty flat wire belt is suitable for many applications. But we
also offer a heavy duty belt where additional strength is required. Flat
wire belt is available in carbon steel, galvanized and stainless steel
construction. In addition FBC provides curved flat wire conveyor belt and
many related products including flights, clips, connectors and flat wire
sprockets. |
