Belts can be employed for all grinding and sanding processes, e.g. with a contact shoe, on the unsupported belt or with a contact wheel, and are distinguished by their high tearing resistance and optimum stretch behaviour.
Heavy, robust, X or Y cloth backings are used for flat surfaces.
Profiled parts need lighter,more flexible backings of J, F or E grade cloth which adapt to a curvature of the workpiece. Belts are used in a multitude of lengths and widths on a whole series of
machines.
VSM offers belts in numerous sizes up to 500mm wide for the machining of surfaces. Belts over 500mm wide are classed as wide belts and are dealt with separately
