Shingle Belting’s PVC V-Guides are extruded from superior PVC compounds. Our PVC V-guides are much more cost effective because they can be applied with less heat; which decreases the damage to the belt’s carcass, they will not crack or delaminate and they have good resistance to heat and oils.
Types of V-Guides:- Clear Urethane – 70 shore A (meets FDA requirements)
- White PVC – 60 & 75 shore A (meets FDA requirements)
- Black PVC – 60 & 75 shore A
- Custom Colors
- Custom Sizes
- Custom Durometers
For the average V-Guided belt, the V-Guide represents a small portion of the total belt cost. Why risk costly belt failures with inferior, clay-filled V-Guides?
