Fire Resistant Conveyor Belt Feature

The primary purpose of a fire resistant conveyor belt is to limit the potential for fire to spread along the belt, thereby reducing the risk of a catastrophic fire event. These belts are made from materials that are specially formulated to resist burning and withstand exposure to high temperatures.

  • Fire resistant conveyor belts are typically constructed with a multi-layered design. The top layer, known as the cover, is made from a fire-resistant rubber compound that provides the primary protection against flames and heat. This layer is often reinforced with additional layers of fabric or steel cords to enhance its strength and durability.
  • Fire resistant conveyor belts are subjected to rigorous testing to ensure their compliance with international safety standards. These tests assess various properties including flame resistance, heat resistance, electrical conductivity, and smoke emission. Only belts that meet or exceed these standards are considered suitable for use in applications where fire hazards are a concern.
  •  It is commonly used in industries such as mining, steel, and power plants where there is a high risk of fire hazards.
