Belting

Novex conveyor belting is engineered to meet the demands of your most challenging food-grade and industrial applications. For applications requiring higher friction, we also offer the option to cover the woven fabric carcass on both sides, providing enhanced grip and performance.

Our food-grade belts are specifically formulated to comply with FDA regulations, USDA-approved for direct contact with meat and poultry, and carry 3-A Dairy Certification for cheese processing.

To ensure the right solution for every application, we offer a diverse range of carcasses, tension ratings, gauges, and durometers.

Gauge

Gauge refers to the uniform thickness of the belt. The ideal gauge depends on the specific application. Novex belts are available in thicknesses ranging from 1/8″ to 7/16″.

Tension Rating

Tension ratings are based on the maximum force in pounds that can be applied to a solid woven fabric carcass per inch of belt width (PIW). This ensures the belt can withstand the required load and performance standards.

Carcass

Both our industrial-grade and food-grade belting can be constructed with a polyester solid woven fabric carcass for superior durability. Alternatively, our food-grade belting can be engineered with Kevlar cords as longitudinal tensile members, limiting the belt’s elongation to less than 1% of the belt’s recommended working tension.

Durometer

The durometer measures the hardness of the polyurethane cover on the Shore A scale. A higher durometer indicates a greater resistance to indentation and harder materials. While 85 durometer is the most commonly used, we offer belts with durometers ranging from 65 to 95, allowing you to choose the right hardness for your application.

Fabrication

Novex offers a wide range of belt end options and fabrications, including lacing, fasteners, splicing, cleats, corrugated sidewalls, and more. Thanks to the thermoplastic properties of Novex belting, all styles can be easily and quickly spliced into endless configurations without the need for mechanical fasteners. Multiple splicing methods are available to suit various application needs, ensuring seamless integration and reliable performance.

Bias Splice

Suitable for light weight and low-tension applications. This splicing method provides an operating tension safety factor of 4:1.

"V" Type Splice

Recommended for service applications, where the belt will be subject to back bending or back flexing. Will provide an operating tension safety factor of 7:1.

Vulcanize Finger Splice

Recommended for applications where 100% of the belt’s recommended operating tension is required or where a smooth splice surface area is required.
