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 aredealt with separately.

Zirconia:

Due to the outstanding cutting performance and the additional lubricating layer, our zirconia alumina series allow a very high stock removal with reduced temperature in the grinding zone. The cool grinding leads to an extension of service life and the continuous generation of new cutting edges during the whole service life provides an improved surface quality.
