PTFE Belting
Taconic manufactures each of its TFE-GLASS™ and SRC-GLASS™ belts to custom specifications, depending on each customer’s individual needs. To help determine the best belt for your unique application, an experienced customer service representative is always on hand to discuss your requirements.
Ordering Your Taconic Belt
Whenever possible, have the following information available:
- Dimensions of belt: width and length
- Desired splice, edge reinforcement and tracking devices, where needed
- Pulley size and type
- Any special construction or instructions concerning the fabrication of your Taconic belt. In some cases of complex fabrication, a print may be requested.
Choosing the Right Material
There are a number of factors to keep in mind when choosing the belting material for your application:
- Temperature Range – Both our TFE and SRC-GLASS™ fabrics have the capabilities of withstanding -100°F - +500°F constant operating temperatures.
- Pliability – If the material is to track around pulleys that drive the belt, the diameter of the pulley is critical. The smaller the roller the more flexible the belt must be. Taconic’s thinner materials (0.010” and under) are more pliant that the heavier coated fabrics.
- Release Qualities – The surface finishes of our materials range from a rough, semi-porous finish to a super smooth surface. The release or fabric impression results desired will be a determining factor.
- Strength – Options to be considered are breaking, tensile and tear strength. How much of a load the belt carries, how fast it moves and how tightly it will be tensioned all must be considered.
