Nylon Core Belts: Power, Precision, and Performance

In the world of industrial power transmission, few components work harder than the drive belt. And when it comes to high-speed, high-efficiency applications, SG nylon core belting stands out as a quiet achiever—delivering strength, stability, and superior traction across a wide range of machinery.

🔧 What is SG Nylon Core Belting?

SG belting refers to a class of flat drive belts built around a solid nylon core, paired with rubber covers engineered for durability and grip. These belts are designed for flat power transmission drives and conveying systems that demand consistent performance under pressure.

💪 Key Features

  • Solid Nylon Core: Offers exceptional tensile strength with minimal stretch, absorbing shock loads without compromising belt integrity.
  • Rubber Covers: Available in multiple styles, each tailored for abrasion resistance, oil and grease protection, and static dissipation.
  • High-Speed Capability: Rated for speeds up to 3,050 m/min, making them ideal for demanding applications.
  • No Permanent Elongation: Maintains tension and alignment over time, reducing maintenance and downtime.

⚙️ Typical Applications

SG belts are trusted across industries where traction, speed, and reliability are non-negotiable:

  • Folding box machines
  • Tangential drives
  • Printing presses and paper mill rewinds
  • Poultry pickers and feed tapes
  • Textile drives and flour mill roll stands
