Plain metal belts are created by welding together two ends of a metal tape to form an endless belt. High energy beam welding techniques, pioneered in the space program, form a high integrity butt weld that is extremely strong and smooth.

Applications:

• Conveying
• Heat Sealing
• Casting
• Imaging

A Metrak© belt employs a V belt bonded to the inner circumference of the metal belt. This two element belt, which Belt Technologies calls Metrak©, distributes tracking stresses on the V belt rather than on the metal belt, thus maximizing belt life in a forced tracking system.
