Product Description
When you need additional strength and support from your belt, go no further than Flat-Flex® XT®. Flat-Flex XT’s distinctive smaller spacing increases the number of belt joints throughout the belt’s span, making it stronger. Its innovative design allows for better distribution of product weight across the width of the belt, decreasing belt fatigue and enhancing belt life.
