Overview of fabric conveyor belts for conveyor belt systems
Fabric Conveyor Belts for Highest Requirements
germanBelt® fabric conveyor belts are used to transport heavy abrasive materials such as rock, ore or gravel. The covers of these fabric conveyor belts are made of rubber that is extremely resistant to wear, abrasion and cutting. germanBelt® fabric conveyor belts are anti-static. Low elongation is a matter of course for us as it expresses our high demands on quality. Our fabric conveyor belts are manufactured in strengths of up to 3,150N/mm and widths of up to 3,000 mm.
Fabric conveyor belts which are intended for uses that expose them to high amounts of stress are available with breakers.

Structure of germanBelt® fabric conveyor belts
Fabric reinforcement:
Our fabric conveyor belts are reinforced by 2-5 rot-resistant plies made of synthetic EP or PP fabric. These fabrics possess a good tensile strength/weight ratio, have excellent flexibility and troughability, low elongation, high impact resistance and good chemical resistance.
Covers:
The carcass of the fabric belts is protected by covers. Cover qualities or grades are characterized by the conveyor belts’ chemical and physical properties. Inclined systems require cleats or fabric conveyor belts with grooved surfaces. Cover thickness depends on the properties of the transported material and on loading conditions.
Skim layers:
Rubber skim layers in the fabric conveyor belt’s carcass provide excellent adhesion between the plies and efficient distribution of tension. They also absorb impact stress caused by dropping material.
Cover grades
