Megaflex Polyurethane Belts

Megaflex timing belts are manufactured in thermoplastic polyurethane, with continuous spiral steel cords. this type of belt, developed by our research & development, offers good running characteristics and high traction loads. They are especially suited for power transmission and conveying with high loads and high speeds (up to 10.000 rpm). The addition of a nylon coating on the teeth during production enhances the running properties for specific applications and reduces the noise frictional coefficient. An extra thickness of special coating is also possible on the back of the belt offering extra protection against aggressive or heavy products. Megaflex belts are truly endless, enabling them to deliver exceptional performance. Megadyne Megaflex timing belts are available from 1.500 up to 22.700 mm length.

MEGAFLEX MAIN COMPONENTS

The body of the belts is white thermoplastic polyurethane 92 ShA, characterised by high levels of wear resistance even in the presence of shock and surge loading.
High strength helicoidal zinked steel tension members allow high breaking load and extremely low elongation.

The combination of these high grade materials improves belt performances which can be summarized as follows:

exceptional resistance to abrasion and tooth shear
low coefficient of friction
high flexibility
ozone and temperature resistance ( -25 °C / +80 °C)
oil, grease and gasoline resistance
