specific needs of the given application,providing superior protection against the abuse of conveying virtually any material. The steel cord provides superior impact resistance, with the number and size being selected to meet the desired operating tension and application needs. The insulation gum is specifically designed to encapsulate each steel cord filament to reduce internal friction while providing enhanced adhesion to the cover rubbers.Top and bottom covers provide maximum protection to the steel cord. The cover compounds are specifically designed to meet the demands of the application, and are available in a wide variety of rubber types and gauges.

Features & Benefits

High Tension Capabilities
Flexsteel belts handle the most demanding applications. Goodyear Engineered Products continues to lead the industry in designing thestrongest belts to meet the growing demand for long overland systems.

Fewer Transfer Points
Flexsteel's high-tension capabilities permit extremely long centers, exceptionally high lifts, and multiple horizontal curves. This allows the designer to reduce the number of transfer points to minimize a major source of maintenance headaches and downtime.

FLEXSTEEL

Limited Take-up Travel
Flexsteelbelts elongate a maximum of 0.25% at rated tension. This allows lower cost take-up systems on many applications, and makes Flexsteel the preferred choice for long overland and short stacker/reclaiming systems, where minimum elongation is critical.

Life-long Splices
Our proven splicing methods, validated on Goodyear EP’s Two-Pulley Splice Tester, result in dynamic splice efficiencies in excess...
