Conveyor Accessories: EZ-Splice® joining strand

Flat-Flex® belts have over 85 years of trusted performance in the industry. With up to 86% open surface area, Flat-Flex® belts promote maximum flow through and are the proven solution for major processors. Flat-Flex® USDA approved design and clean in place capability make it even easier to keep your line hygienic, and with many wire diameters and pitches to choose from, you’ll be able to find the right belt for your product.

C-CureEdge® C-shaped edge loops help to prevent catching during installation and operation of your conveyor belt especially during tight conveyor-to-conveyor transfers. C-CureEdge® edge loops also add an extra layer of safety to your belt by minimizing the risk of catching during contact. C-CureEdge® is available on many Flat-Flex®, Flat-Flex® XT®, and comes standard on Compact-Grid™ conveyor belts.

Joining tubes can be used to create a hybrid join between a full strand weave and the use of joining clips. A single strand is cut into smaller single space sections, which are woven into the belt and joined together by crimping a stainless steel joining tube onto the adjacent wire sections. This method maintains the belt strength of a full strand weave while eliminating the distortion that occurs during the weaving process. It is important to consider whether joining tubes could mark product or have hygiene implications when choosing this method.

Wire Belt offers a range of straight conveyors designed to ensure efficient operation, improved belt life and maximum cleaning ability. Our straight conveyors feature an open construction with the belt being supported on food grade high density blue polyethylene wear strips clipped to the stainless steel framework. All of our conveyors are suitable for use in hygiene-sensitive environments common to the food and pharmaceutical industries.
