54 EN
The 54 EN DuraBelt consists of a woven, double-layer base fabric that has a coating of polyurethane. The controlled permeability of the base fabric allows penetration of the polyurethane coating through the structure that covers the felt side of the belt. This will result in the base fabric becoming fully encapsulated and leads to an increase in abrasion and chemical resistance over the single-coated style. The 54 EN DuraBelt can be cost effective on damage prone positions and is primarily supplied to board, pulp, and corrugating grades.

55 TE
The 55 TE DuraBelt allows penetration of the polyurethane coating through the base to cover the felt side of the belt. With the base fabric fully encapsulated, a further process leads to a modified surface texture with raised areas to add flow channels for the release of pressure and enhanced water flow. The 55 TE DuraBelt can be cost effective on damage prone positions and is primarily supplied to board, pulp, and corrugating grades.

56 DC
The 56 DC DuraBelt consists of a woven, double-layer base fabric that has a coating of polyurethane applied to both the shoe and felt sides. The increased calliper of the belt provides a better fit for the different shoe and counter roll radii designs of each shoe press manufacturer. The belt’s neutral axis can be engineered to control stress levels on both the shoe and felt surfaces, leading to extended resistance to bending and compression fatigue. The ground smooth surface gives excellent calliper uniformity leading to even pressure distribution in the nip. This style of belt can be used on the most mark-sensitive grades.

XT DC
The DuraBelt XT DC consists of a woven, base fabric layer with coating of polyurethane applied to both the shoe and felt sides. Both the felt side and shoe side have ground smooth surfaces with excellent calliper uniformity leading to even pressure distribution in the nip.

The base support matrix of the DuraBelt XT DC has been designed to give optimum dimensional stability in both the machine and cross-machine directions. This belt also has increased coating adhesion strength throughout the belt life, giving value through improved damage resistance and life potential.
