Antistatic SYNCHROFLEX® Timing Belts

Hello Everyone ....!!!

Today we will proceed with our past article of PU Timing Belts. In today article we will talk about the antistatic properties & Area of Application /use of SYNCHROFLEX® Timing Belts.

The Construction:

SYNCHROFLEX® Timing Belts consist of two components, a polyurethane and a high grade steel cord tension member. The excellent bond between the two materials results in high power transmission capacity.

The antistatic properties of SYNCHROFLEX® Timing Belts are achieved by:


1. Antistatic coating
Post-process application of an electrically conductive coat on all sides of the belts with and wihtout textile facing.

2. Antistatic PU-Mixture
A special conductive polyurethane mixture.


SYNCHROFLEX® Timing Belts antistatic Application / Use


Antistatic SYNCHROFLEX® Timing Belts find their application where electrostatic charges are not desired or inadmissible, e.g. for the transport of electronic components, drives and/or conveying equipment in an inflammable environment.

Electric charges due to the continual separation of two contact surfaces can be expected where timing belts are involved, e. g. pulley and timing belt.This electric charge can be considerable and as high as implying the danger of ignition at the moment of its discharge. The value of the electric charge depends on the materials out of which timing belt, synchronous pulley, tension roller and/or support roller are manufactured.It rises as the belt speed, belt pretension and the contact surface width increase.

Antistatic properties

Antistatic SYNCHROFLEX® Timing Belts reliably avoid the formation of electric charges. According to DIN22104 “Antistatic conveyor belts”, the surface resistance must be below 3x108 Ohm . Antistatic Synchroflex®timing belts feature a surface resistance of R<106 Ohm.
