Several options in plastic link style, solid surface and metal mesh belting are available to meet all sanitary conveyor needs when installed on DynaClean conveyor systems. Belting is selected based on the properties of the food or pharmaceutical product being conveyed in order to get maximum product flow with minimal product loss.
ThermoDrive Solid Surface Sanitary Conveyor Belting
ThermoDrive thermoplastic belting with 100% closed surfaces are well suited for hygienic food-processing applications. At first glance, they may appear to be traditional flat belts. What makes them significantly better is the patented ThermoDrive positive drive system. Unlike traditional flat belts, these belts drive on sprockets like a modular plastic belt and are not under tension, enabling easy lifting for plastic belt conveyor cleaning and solving nearly all traditional flat belt problems.
- Reduced belt cleaning time up to 75%
- 100% closed surfaces are ideal for sanitary conveyor requirements and food processing applications
- Pre-tensioning is completely eliminated
- No reinforcing members (fibers) that can complicate splicing, create bacteria traps, and make it harder to repair damaged belts
- Provide full pull capability without permanent stretch or creep
- No sink marks on the top of the belt to harbor bacteria, due to the unique manufacturing process
- Simple installation, removal, or replacement utilizing one hygienic plastic lacing rod
- Easy cleaning and service – even on difficult-to-access conveyors

Link-Style Plastic Conveyor Belting
Plastic link style belting is self-lubricating, requires no maintenance, and is easy to clean and repair. Injection-molded plastic belt conveyor modules are interlocked by plastic rods, which provide belt strength and durability. Damaged belting sections can be easily and inexpensively replaced. Belting configurations can be easily modified. Drive flights (cleats) can be inserted or removed at any time.
Positive sprocket drive and tracking with the plastic link style belting eliminates slippage and edge damage. Plastic conveyor belts are available in widths to fit all DynaClean sanitary conveyors. Varying conveyor belt styles, colors and materials are available.
Open hinge flat top conveyor belt
- Smooth, closed upper surface with fully flush edges and recessed rods
- Cam-link designed hinges – expose more hinge and rod area as belt goes around the sprocket allowing unsurpassed cleaning access to this area
- Fully sculpted and radius corners – no pockets or sharp corners to catch and hold debris
- Drive bar channels water and debris to the outside of the belt for easier, faster clean up
- Polypropylene, polyethylene or acetal
- FDA and USDA approved
- Optional high-quality rust-proof detectable fibers added to allow the belt to be detected by the most commonly used metal detectors
Nub top conveyor belt
- Plastic conveyor belt has closed upper surface with fully flush edges and recessed rods
- Recommended for products large enough to span the distance between the nubs [0.250″ (6.35 mm)]
- Standard nub indent is 1.3″ (33 mm)
- Polypropylene, polyethylene or acetal
- FDA approved
- Optional high-quality rust-proof detectable fibers added to allow the belt to be detected by the most commonly used metal detectors
Mesh nub top conveyor belt
- Fully sculpted and radius corners – no pockets or sharp corners to catch and hold debris
- Drive bar channels water and debris to the outside of the belt for easier, faster clean up
- Standard mesh nub indent is 1.3″ (33 mm)
- Polypropylene or acetal
- FDA approved
Flush grid
- 38% open pattern with smooth upper surface
- Polypropylene or acetal

Open hinge flat top drive flights / cleats
- No cling vertical ribs are on both sides of flight
- 1″, 2″, 3″ or 4″ height
- Minimum indent is 1″ (25.4 mm)
- Polypropylene, polyethylene or acetal
Metal Mesh Belting
Metal mesh belting is self-tracking and allows the sanitary conveyor to be cleaned in place. Metal mesh belting is transparent, metal detectable and allows for tight transfers which aids in the gentle transfer of small or delicate products. There are no places for product particles to be trapped. Metal mesh belting allows exceptional flow-through properties to batter, bread, glaze, coat, cool, drain, dry or wash product while being conveyed.

Flat-Flex
- Up to 86% open area
- Available in a variety of wire diameters
- Easy to clean, clean-in-place
- Metal detectable
Drive Flights
- Customized height & width to accommodate product
- Through-holes and side vents for hygienic drainage & drying
