Leather/Leather Nylon
This is one of the oldest styles of drive belts.  Leather is still used on many styles of drive systems.  Leather nylon is used mainly in wood, pulp and paper mills for demanding drive belts.

Sand Top and other Roll Coverings
In many textile applications drive or pinch rollers are covered with various types of materials to drive, pull or tension material.  Sand Top is the most popular and is stocked in 72" rolls as well as other styles.  This type of belting can also have PSA (pressure sensitive adhesion) applied to the bottom surface.

Teflon Fiberglass/Silicone Fiberglass
In areas where high heat (450°) is needed, coated fiberglass with teflon or silicone has been excellent for conveying.  We carry a full line of this product that includes solid as well as open mesh designs.
