A Dewefted Joint is formed by removing 15-25mm of weft fibers, allowing the warp fibers at the belt’s end to interlock. Once sealed using the appropriate process, this joint offers enhanced strength by creating multiple contact points, similar to an overlap joint but with improved durability.

Scarfed Joints are similar to overlap joints, but the belt ends are scarfed before joining. This process creates a smoother finish, ensuring that products move seamlessly across the belt without interference.

A Butt Joint is formed by aligning the belt ends together and welding them using a backstrap or top strap. This method creates an exceptionally smooth surface, allowing products to move across with minimal to no interference. Sealing the joint requires a high-temperature iron or lightweight press to effectively melt and fuse the materials together.

An Overlap Joint is created by layering the belt ends on top of each other and sealing them together. This method provides a quick and easy solution, which can be applied after the belt is installed on the machine. However, it does result in a slight ridge at the joint.

The Peek Spiral Joint is formed by folding and sewing a Kevlar or mesh material around the belt ends. Peek spiral loops are then woven into the mesh, creating a smooth, compact pin joint. Similar to the Bullnose Joint, this design provides enhanced flexibility due to the integrated loops within the material.

A cover flap can be made from any material of your choice and is applied after the joint is formed. It helps create a smoother surface, allowing products to move seamlessly across the belt joint.

Bullnose Joints are created by folding and sewing the material along the joint section, leaving the loops overhanging so they can interlock. These joints are widely used because they provide a quick and efficient way to join conveyor belts while maintaining high-temperature resistance due to the industrial thread used in the process.

There are two methods for applying a Bullnose Joint:

• Sewn-under – Offers a smoother finish, making it ideal for applications with accumulation and take-off plates.
• Encapsulated – Creates a slight ridge where the material is applied but provides a stronger, longer-lasting joint.

The S/S Clipper Joint is formed by attaching an A36 S/S fastener to an encapsulated Kevlar end reinforcement. The reinforcement enhances the durability of the joint, preventing the clipper from gradually coming apart and ensuring a longer-lasting connection. This type of joint is ideal for situations where quick installation or removal of belts is needed. It’s simple to use—just wrap the belts around the machine and insert a pin through the joint after aligning it. The Clipper Joint can be used on both PTFE open-weave mesh and closed-weave mesh.

Finger Joints are created by overlapping the ends of the belt and stamping out the desired size fingers. Once formed, a backstrap is applied and the joint is sealed together. This type of joint offers similar benefits to other overlap joints but helps reduce stress on the joint area, resulting in a smooth, flat, and strong finish. Finger joints are typically sealed using one of our presses, depending on the specific type of finger required.

The Castellated Joint is made using PTFE-coated Kevlar/Aramid material, with interlocking loops throughout. The material is then sealed onto the joint section of the belt. This design allows for easy fitting and removal of the belt from the machine, while also providing high durability and long-lasting performance.
