Open Mesh PTFE-Coated Fabrics
Allows airflow through the belt to promote drying
Taconic’s PTFE-coated open mesh fabric belts are engineered for airflow, drying, and curing applications that demand heat resistance and clean release. Constructed from woven fiberglass, or Kevlar®, coated with high-performance PTFE, these materials promote rapid drying and uniform heating by allowing air circulation through the surface.
As a U.S. based manufacturer since 1961, Taconic supplies open mesh fabrics used in drying, curing, lamination, screen printing, textile finishing, food processing, packaging, and composite manufacturing. With consistent open area and precise coating control, Taconic’s mesh fabrics deliver outstanding durability, chemical resistance, and thermal stability in demanding industrial environments.
