PTFE Mesh Belting

PTFE open mesh belting is ideal for conveying products within highly efficient air distribution systems, optimizing moisture removal. It’s commonly used in ultraviolet (UV) and infrared (IR) dryer units. The open mesh design allows maximum airflow, optimizing drying times, and making it a preferred choice for dryer manufacturers.

Applications:

• Drying of printed products (e.g., point-of-display stands, T-shirts, glass, mass-produced paper prints)
• Print dryers using UV, IR, or hot air as heat sources
• Drying cereals, non-wovens, charcoal interlinings, carpets, carpet tiles, printed circuit boards, and shrink-wrap tunnels

Features and Benefits:

• Lightweight and cost-effective, easier to handle and replace than wire alternatives
• Often supplied with metallic clipper-type fasteners for easy removal and replacement, minimizing downtime and saving costs
• Available in carbon-loaded black for antistatic properties

Material Properties:

• Temperature resistant from -99°F to 500°F
• Chemically inert
• Resistant to ultraviolet, infrared, microwave, and radio frequency
• Food-approved by the USFDA
• Non-stick surface
• Lightweight and energy-efficient for economical operation

Additional Information:

• 4×4 open area mesh available in widths up to 197 inches and any required length
• Optional edge reinforcement with film, glass, or Kevlar depending on the usage environment
• Various joining methods available, with metallic clipper and spiral types being most common
