Welding and splicing equipment for fabricating endless polyurethane belts in the field. This collection includes complete welding kits, splicing clamps, heating irons, shears, and finishing accessories for round and vee urethane belting, 29 tools covering every step from cutting the spool to finishing the weld.
How Urethane Belt Welding Works
Polyurethane belting is thermoplastic: heat the two cut ends, press them together in an alignment clamp, and the material fuses into a joint that approaches the strength of the parent belt. A complete kit (clamp, heating tool, shear, and finishing blade) turns a spool of belting into any endless length in minutes, eliminating the need to stock dozens of fixed-length belts.
Frequently Asked Questions
What do I need to splice round urethane belting?
A splicing clamp matched to the belt diameter, a heating iron or hot knife, a shear for square cuts, and a finishing blade to trim the weld flash. Complete kits in this collection include all four.
How strong is a welded urethane joint?
A properly made butt weld reaches roughly 80 to 90 percent of the belt's tensile strength, which is more than adequate for the conveyor and light-drive applications round and vee belting is used for.
Do these tools work on any brand of urethane belting?
Yes. The welding process is the same for any thermoplastic polyurethane belting, including Megadyne, Jason Industrial, and Eagle.
