Belting - Special Service Compounds

Goodyear Belting Special Service Compounds
Every Plylon belt is designed to provide maximum service life and deliver more tons per dollar invested. Specific cover compounds are available to provide excellent resistance to damage in these specific areas: high abrasion, high heat or oily conditions. Only Goodyear has developed a complete range of compounds to maximize belt performance.

ABRASION SERVICE COMPOUNDS

Stacker®
Stacker is Goodyear’s premium RMA Grade I rubber compound. Stacker compound is designed for superior resistance to cutting, gouging and abrasion. Stacker covers are ideal for conveying hard rock ores, glass cullet, granite, quartz, flint rock, trap rock and other types of sharp, abrasive material. It also offers excellent resistance to certain acid conditions.

Style B
Style B is an RMA Grade II rubber compound designed to provide excellent abrasion resistance and flex life. Style B is your best buy for the majority of belt applications handling abrasive materials. Belting with Style B compound is recommended for conveying slag, lime rock, coal, limestone, cement rock, crushed rock, sand and other materials where abrasion is pres-ent. Style B is ideal for elevator belts handling loose earth, slag, coal, gravel, crushed stone and other abrasive materials.

OIL SERVICE COMPOUNDS

Mors
MORS rubber is especially compounded to resist the terpene content of wood chips and moderately oily grains such as flaxseed, linseed, cottonseed, kernel corn and whole soybeans. MORS compound’s good abrasion resistance makes it your best value for handling moderately oily material where fire resistance is not required.

O.M.E.G.A.—(OIL MSHA ELECTRIC GENERATING APPROVED)
O.M.E.G.A. was designed specifically to handle oil treated coal in power plant and coal yard service. In addition to MSHA approval for flame resistance, O.M.E.G.A. is static conductive, and medium oil resistant. This belt is suited for many other industrial applications where medium oil and flame resistance are required.

HOT SERVICE COMPOUNDS

Thermo-Shield®
A premium hot material compound with excellent heat and abrasion resistance. It is designed to carry hot loads at temperatures up to 800°F. and still retain its abrasion resistant qualities. Thermo-Shield belting has maximum resistance to hardening or cracking; will withstand prolonged exposure under hot loads such as iron ore pellets, casting sand and high ambient temperatures. Thermo-Shield is available with two fabric constructions for maximum heat resistance.

Style 6740-A
Style 6740-A is compounded for excellent heat and abrasion resistance in temperature ranges of 350°F. for lumpy material and up to 250°F. for hot baking loads. This compound does not harden and crack as rapidly as ordinary abrasive service compounds. It is designed for use where there is a combination of hot, lumpy, abrasive materials.

MSHA-SBR
MSHA-SBR is specially compounded to be used where flame resistant belting is required (MSHA-SBR carries the Mine Safety and Health Administration Designation 28-3).

OIL SERVICE COMPOUNDS

ORS-Chemivic®
ORS-Chemivic compound is made especially for operations requiring extreme resistance to oil. It is designed to outperform other types of oil-resistant belting on the toughest installations. It has excellent abrasion, tear, ozone, and weather resistance. It is highly resistant to mineral oil and most other oils that cause swelling and sponginess. ORS-Chemivic compound is recommended for carrying oily metal turnings and shavings, crushed soy beans, and other materials where animal or vegetable fats are present.

Style B Hot Material
A moderately priced compound with high abrasion resistance and good heat resistance. Style B Hot Material is often used in foundries and coke wharf service where there are no oils. It withstands temperatures up to 200°F. in baking conditions and 250°F. if used in intermittent service conveying lumpy materials.

Thermo-Chem®
Thermo-Chem belting is especially compounded to provide maximum resistance to the deteriorating effects of heat in combination with oil, such as hardening and swelling. Thermo-Chem will withstand temperatures up to 350°F while retaining good abrasion resistance and flex life. Thermo-Chem is ideally suited for hot asphalt, coke wharfs, and other applications where both heat and oil resistance are required.
