BRECO Coated Polyurethane Timing Belts

BRECO coated timing belts are synchronous drive belts featuring a robust polyurethane (PUR) body reinforced with steel cords. The transport side can be coated with various materials to match specific handling and conveying requirements – from high-friction surfaces for secure grip to smooth, low-friction coatings for delicate or gliding transport.

Each coating type offers defined hardness, temperature range, and chemical resistance. The belts can be reworked mechanically (e.g., milled, ground, drilled) or fitted with welded-on profiles to create customized transport systems. These belts combine synchronous precision with tailored surface functionality, making them ideal for applications that demand accuracy, speed, and minimal maintenance.

BRECO coated polyurethane timing belts are used across a broad spectrum of industrial and OEM applications, including:

• Material transport in automation and packaging systems
• Conveyor systems for glass, wood, textiles, and metal products
• Handling equipment in assembly lines and robotics
• Food and beverage processing (FDA-approved coatings)
• Vacuum transport systems and synchronous conveyors
• Special-purpose machinery and product positioning systems

What is the purpose of coating a polyurethane timing belt?
The coating enhances the belt’s transport properties — increasing grip, protecting delicate goods, or enabling low-friction movement depending on the chosen material.

Can coated timing belts be used for power transmission?
Yes. BRECO coated timing belts retain full synchronous drive capability while providing the added surface functionality required for combined drive and transport applications.

Are coated belts suitable for food handling?
Yes, selected coatings such as Linaplus FG FDA and PVC herringbone FDA comply with FDA and EU food-contact regulations.

Can BRECO belts be customized for special dimensions or profiles?
Absolutely. Bondy A/S offers belts with welded-on profiles, milled grooves, perforations, or other custom modifications to match your equipment design.

What is the maximum operating temperature for coated belts?
Standard polyurethane coatings operate up to +80°C, while special coatings like Viton withstand up to +190°C (short-term up to +275°C).
