Why Choose a White PVC Elevator Belt?
Usually, our PVC elevator belt is green.
In fact, the manufacturing formula of these two lifting belts is the same. White PVC elevator belts are commonly selected for handling light-colored products such as rice and flour. Although the white and green versions use the same basic belt construction and performance specifications, some food and grain processing plants prefer white belts because they provide a cleaner visual appearance and make contamination easier to notice during inspection.
Some of the big elevator equipment factories in China, habitually use white PVC elevator belts, such as Arowana and COFCO. So then many small companies follow them and choose white conveyor elevator belts.
Some foreign customers choose white PVC lifting elevator belts because they are used to using them. They may think that the white PVC elevator belt is more beautiful and sturdy. In fact, it is also a psychological function.
Anyway, YT Conveyor can produce White PVC elevator belts to meet the max extent of our client’s requirements.
Industries Using White PVC Elevator Belts
White PVC elevator belts are commonly used in oil processing plants, rice mills, flour mills, grain handling facilities, and other food processing applications.
Characteristics of White PVC Elevator Belts
The white PVC elevator belt has the same characteristics as our green PVC elevator belt.
Commonly our factory produces the green PVC elevator belt.
Both white elevator belts and green PVC elevator belts are anti-static, anti-oil, oil-resistant, fat-resistant, water-resistant, anti-corrosion, and anti-flame ability, suitable for the food industry.
These kinds of belts are fully synthetic and suitable for the food industry according to FDA standards.
This solid PVC(PolyVinylChloride) belting is without multi-ply construction and has a solid construction that reduces the risk of layer separation
These belts are available in several breaking loads and thicknesses.
PVC lifting belts are cut and punched according to customers’ specifications.
PVC elevator belts offer good tear resistance and help reduce the risk of elevator bolts pulling through the belt during installation and operation. The connection between the elevator bucket and the elevator belt is more reliable by fixing of elevator bolt.
PVC elevator belt has a smooth surface, so it has a good contact ability with the elevator drum pulley and helps maintain stable contact with the elevator pulley and reduce belt tracking deviation.
