Hollow Rounthane is an extruded round thermoplastic belting with a hollow core. This versatile product is simple to install using the splice connectors and is ideal for conveying applications where fast change-out is critical.
Conveying Applications:Use Rounthane to replace flat belts, rubber v-belts and rubber or leather round belts. It is ideal for complex systems involving multi-directional conveying. When conveying material like glass, tile, polished metal, etc., Rounthane offers the advantage of minimal surface contact. It is a favorite in the food processing industries since it will not harbor bacteria and is easy to clean. Multiple strands of Rounthane may be used to replace flat conveyor belts.
