CLEATS, also known as flights or profiles, are practical additions to urethane belts to
assist in applications where product separation, sortation, actuation, or pushing.
Cleated timing belts are commonly found in application areas where pick and place
must be timed for production line accuracy.
MEGALINEAR and MEGAFLEX timing belts can be customised with profiles welded,
casted out of a mould or even grinded from over-tickness on the backside of the belt.
All cleats, whether injection moulded or CNC machined are made with high-quality
thermoplastic polyurethane.
Cleat design is determined by the application requirements of the cleat and the size of the product required. Using our flexible production capabilities, Megadyne can design any cleat shape to meet the specific requirements of the customer:
• CNC machined from thermoplastic PU sheet or grinded out of over-tickness
• Injection moulded or casted which are manufactured in our own tool building facilities to guarantee fast service.
In addition to our standard 92 ShA or harder 96 ShA urethane, Megadyne can provide EU Food compliant, FDA compliant blue, or transparent polyurethane for the food and pharmaceutical industry with a hardness of 85 ShA. Blue cleats made with the same FDA material as our blue belt are available to ensure materials compatibility for use in food applications.
