Types of Rounthane:
-
HOLLOW - Furnished in yellow or clear
-
SOLID - Furnished in yellow, orange, clear and ivory
Conveying Applications:
Use Rounthane to replace flat belts,
rubber v-belts and rubber or leather
round belts. It is ideal for complex
systems involving multi-directional
conveying. When conveying material
like glass, tile, polished metal,
etc., Rounthane offers the advantage
of minimal surface contact. It is a
favorite in the food processing
industries since it will not harbor
bacteria and is easy to clean.
Multiple strands of Rounthane may be
used to replace flat conveyor belts.
Power Transmission Applications:
Hi-Cap Rounthane offers the
advantages of easy, quick
installations and long life in light
duty applications. Its friction
characteristics are excellent. Do
not use Hi-Cap Rounthane where
clutching or slipping is required.

Veethane
- Extruded V-Belting
Veethane belting is a
thermoplastic extrusion. It combines
strength with flexibility. It has a
coefficient of friction greater than
rubber, and also maintains its
characteristics over a wide
temperature.
|
Characteristics |
|
-
Far tougher than rubber
-
Chemical resistant
-
FDA/USDA accepted
|
|
|
Applications |
|
-
Tile Manufacturing
-
Light Duty Drives
-
Package Handling
-
Food Industry
|
|
Because Veethane is made from a pure
Polymer, it has a nonporous surface
which will not attract lint or dust,
absorb fats or greases, or harbor
bacteria. Veethane is supplier in
100ft rolls. The user can cut
Veethane to length and heat seal it,
even on enclosed drives, so
inventory problems and downtime are
reduced.
Types of Veethane:
There are three types of Veethane.
Yellow standard Veethane is urethane
and primarily used for conveying
applications. It is highly flexible
and heat resistant. FDA/USDA Clear
Veethane has the same basic
composition and performance
characteristics as Standard Veethane
and is accepted for food
applications. Hi-Cap Veethane,
extruded from Polyester, is
primarily for power transmission
applications. It is virtually
impervious to common industrial
contaminants that can weaken or
destroy rubber v-belts. And because
Veethane has no internal cords, it
can absorb sudden shocks without
stretching or breaking. It is
accepted by the FDA/USDA for use in
the food industry.
-
Standard/FDA/USDA =
Conveying
-
Hi-Cap = Power Transmission
-
Reinforced Urethane = Power
Transmission
|
Conveying Applications:
Veethane has a high resistance to
wear and can be used to convey
abrasive material such as cinder
blocks, grinding wheels and objects
made of glass, metal or plastic.
Veethane is non-marking, so it is
excellent for conveying paperboard
packages. The pentagonal Veethane is
ideal for conveying glass or tile.
Power Transmission Applications:
Hi-Cap Veethane can replace belts in
many drive applications. Matched
sets of Veethane are easy to install
on multiple belt drives by measuring
them to the same length before
bonding. Veethane should not be
installed in cross drive
applications or as a “slip” clutch.

Fast, Easy Splicing:
You won’t lose hours of production
waiting for steel cable to be
braided. With our tool kit, anyone
can make a perfect splice in less
than 15 minutes….virtually
eliminating downtime! And the cables
lighter weight makes installations
safer too. Urethane can be joined
using only a heat paddle.
Stretch-Resistant
Because of their exceptionally
strong reinforcement, Shingle
extrusions keep their shape,
maintain their tension, and will not
stretch even under the stress of
heavy loads. That means no surge,
les downtime, fewer “knockdowns” and
better productivity.

|
Reduces neckdown:
All the problems usually associated
with "neckdown", stretching, uneven
cable surfaces, jam-ups, excessive
breaks, downtime for re-splicing are
significantly reduced.
Faster, easy splicing:
With our can cable tool kit, anyone
can make a splice in less than 15
minutes, and the cable’s lighter
weight makes installations safer
too.
Stretch-resistant:
Shingle Can Cable will not stretch
under the stress of heavy loads.
That means no “cable surge”, less
downtime, fewer "neckdowns" and
better productivity.
Rust and moisture resistant:
There’s no Nylon cover to strip off,
no exposed steel to rust or cause
rim burn. Thermoplastic will not
absorb water or oil. Shingle Can
Cable is particularly well suited
for dairies because it is impervious
to the acidic atmosphere than can
rot nylon and rust steel cables.
Abrasion-resistant:
Shingle’s tough thermoplastic
formula resists damage even under
the abuse of raw-edged cans.
Cuts noise:
Shingle Can Cables smooth surface
virtually eliminates the noise
commonly associated with steel.
Saves energy:
Since Shingles thermoplastic cable
is only one-third the weight of
steel cable, there is less energy
consumption and greater energy
savings.

V-Guides
– Tracking Guides for Conveyor
Belting (click here to view V-GUIDE
FLYER)
Shingle Belting’s PVC V-Guides are
extruded from superior PVC
compounds. Our PVC V-guides are much
more cost effective because they can
be applied with less heat; which
decreases the damage to the belt’s
carcass, they will not crack or
delaminate and they have good
resistance to heat and oils.
| Characteristics |
Advantages |
- FDA/USDA approved
- Good resistance to chemicals, stretching, heat and oil
- Solid or notched
|
- Variety of durometers
- Easy to affix to many different types of belting
- Attach V profiles on the topside for flanges or on the bottom for guides
- Extremely flexible
- Choice of textures
- Custom colors
|
Types of V-Guides:
- Clear Urethane - 70 shore A (meets FDA requirements)
- White PVC – 75 shore A (meets FDA requirements)
- Black PVC - 75 shore A
- Custom Colors
- Custom Sizes
- Custom Durometers
|
For the average V-Guided belt, the
V-Guide represents a small portion
of the total belt cost. Why risk
costly belt failures with inferior,
clay-filled V-Guides?
