Endless TPU round belts (Polycord/Habiblue)
Endless round belts made of high-quality thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) are highly flexible, can be bent in all directions and are very easy to weld to any length by fusing the ends. By welding the ends, the belts can be made endless directly on the machine. This allows easy installation and maintenance with minimal downtime. Thanks to their low creep elongation, they offer a long service life. Polycord round belts can be stretched by approx. 8% in length.
Our TPU round belts have a roughened surface, which creates optimal static friction and largely prevents slippage when the tension is set correctly. They are suitable for conveying as well as drive applications.
Welding TPU belts
With our CLOVER mini iron and the separately available narrow tip, welding (mirror welding) TPU belts is very easy! Alternatively, you can use a soldering iron with a flat tip.
1. Cut the belt to the desired length, making sure the two cuts match
2. Bring the ends together in a straight line and hold them in place
3. Melt both ends completely with the hot mirror or soldering iron
4. Press together briefly – done
If you need to weld a lot of belts, a tool set with cutter, holding device and welding mirror is worth buying – this link shows you some in Google.
