Metal conveyor belts are used on roller chain conveyors. Unlike pulley-driven conveyors, roller chain conveyors use a sprocket to transfer power to heavy-duty roller chains that run the length of the frame. The metal belt attaches to the roller chain. Roller chain conveyors maintain positive drive under heavy loads, without slippage.
We supply replacement conveyor belts. We also design and manufacture conveyors for all industries and applications.

Apron pan, hinged steel, and Z-pan belts are metal roller chain belts known for their durability, strength, high load capacity, and tolerance to harsh environments. They possess excellent resistance to heat, fire, chemicals, and abrasion. They are also easy to sanitize for waste management and food processing applications.
Metal conveyor belts meet the challenging application requirements of heavy industries.
Apron pan belts are composed of overlapping metal pans. The pans form troughs that capture small, loose material. They also prevent rollback on moderate inclines. The small gaps between pans allow particulates to filter out. Apron pan belts effectively transport:

Hinged steel belts are made of interlocking steel plates. They form a flat, gapless conveying surface that can articulate on inclines to prevent material loss between plates. Hinged steel belts commonly process:

Z-pan belts are composed of interlocking z-shaped plates. Their deep troughs capture loose materials and prevent rollback on steep inclines. They also efficiently portion materials for tumble-back metering into other equipment. Z-pan belts excel at moving:
