Durability
A single ply of HarvestFlex® provides more textile reinforcement than an equivalently rated ply construction. Coupled with the straight-warp weave design, HarvestFlex® delivers rip and tear values five times greater than plied belts.
Bolt Retention
Fenner Dunlop’s Flex-style carcass provides bolt retention that is far superior to competitive brands. In lab testing, utilizing the RMA #123 test procedure, HarvestFlex® demonstrated bolt retention values up to 95% higher than other manufacturers. Together with HarvestFlex®’s low elongation properties, this can result in less maintenance downtime related to bucket issues.
Troughability
Proper belt troughability is synonymous with belt tracking. HarvestFlex®, with its Flex-style carcass, conforms easily to all idler profiles ensuring easy belt tracking without sacrificing load support.
Bucket Elevators
Fenner Dunlop HarvestFlex® is unsurpassed for bucket elevator service in either centrifugal discharge or a continuous bucket system. Selection of the most suitable HarvestFlex® belt style demands that all of the pertinent data and information be considered.
