How to Identify your Flat-Flex® Belt

To identify a Flat-Flex belt, you will need to determine the following:

  1. Count the number of wire strands in a 12 inch length of belting. This will determine the exact pitch (or distance from each woven strand of wire to the next) in terms of wire strands per foot of belt.
  2. Measure the wire diameter with a wire gauge.
  3. Measure the overall width of the belt in inches from outside edge to outside edge.
  4. Count of the number of rectangular openings (called spaces) across the width of the belt.
  5. Check to see if the belt has single loop edges or double loop edges. (Note: double loop edges are only available on certain meshes with .035" diameter wire or .050" diameter wire.)
