For decades plants like yours have been forced to cope with conveyor belts that
‘quickly crack and blister under high heat conditions. The resulting carry-back,
clean-up and maintenance costs have been a constant problem,
Finally, a new breed of belt is changing all that
(Over half a century of research and development has produced a belt with
advanced construction, providing durability under extreme material temperatures
as high as 750‘F (400°C). The Yokohama Hamaheat Belt gives you superior
abrasion resistance in severe conditions, the lowest cost-per-tonnage and the
best ROI in the business.
Yokohama breakthroughs in heat tolerance, abrasion resistance and splice
shave been industry-proven throughout the world in cement
plants, lime kilns, potash manufacturing, foundries, eake aven plants, iron ore
pelletizing and other high heat applications. Shouldn't you be getting this kind of
adhesion propert
performance, durability and results from your belt?
Advanced construction withstands heat up to 750°F (400°C)
Hamaheat belts resist hardening and cracking while carrying fine or coarse
loads up to 750°F (400°C). Laboratory tests show that in high-heat conditions
Hamaheat belts maintain cover tensile strength almost five times greater than the
two leading brands. Improved cover performance under extreme heat extends the
life of your belt while minimizing material carry-back. Clean-up and maintenance
costs associated with premature cracking & blistering are greatly diminished,
Hamaheat belts resist the cupping and/or curling tendency of typical high-temp
belts allowing for better belt tracking and reduced edge dat

|Superior abrasion resistance
under extreme conditions
In comparison with conventional leading brand
high-heat EPOM belts, Hamaheat belts show
significantly less cover loss in abrasion tests
(DIN 53516). (See top graph.)
Lowest cost-per-tonnage and best ROI
In side-by-side tests with conventional EPDM
high-heat belts, Hamaheat belts lasted
significantly longer carrying a wide variety o
high-heat materials. The Hamaheat advantage
gives you greater peace-of-mind and
optimum ROI.
Vulcanized splices remain intact
for the life of your belt
Hamaheat achesion values actually increase
with heat ¢0 you can count on splices to last
the life of your belt when properly vulcanized,
Hamaheat belts eliminate the need for
mechanical splices, allowing you to take
advantage of belt cleaners and further reduce
the cost cycle associated with carry-back
material and clean-up.
Run true with molded edges
manufactured to width
Conventional high-heat belts are often slit
from wider rolls. That's why i's nat uncommon
for belts to have some camber, requiring more
time to train initially. In contrast, Hamaheat
belts are manufactured to width with molded
ledges so you never get a hooked belt. They're
900d to go from the moment they're installed.
‘And they continue to perform like no other belt
fon the market,
Extreme-heat carcass design
Hamaheat’s extreme heat technology
strength stars atthe core. The carcass is
made from a proprietary fabric and dipping
process that resists delamination and
floxural fatigue.
