Leading Edge® Performance Link Belt & Sprockets

  • Strongest turn belt available
  • Transport heavier loads at higher speeds
  • Largest belt widths for high-volume processing

Leading Edge® Performance Link is the strongest turn belt available. For applications requiring extra width plus the ability to transport heavier loads at high speeds, Leading Edge Performance Link belts simply can’t be beat. Achieving belt widths that were never possible before, these belts have opened the door for processors to satisfy high-volume production requirements for freezing, cooling and proofing lines.

Featuring three rows of heavy-duty links and a double row of extra heavy-duty reinforcing bars along the outside edge, Leading Edge is engineered to combine exceptional strength and stress resistance with smooth, trouble-free operation year after year. These belts offer the ultimate in carrying capacity and dependability. Their design eliminates the need to flip the belt, thereby increasing production time and decreasing downtime and maintenance.

Leading Edge® belts provide maximum throughput for heavy loads:

  • Open link construction for air circulation and drainage.
  • Overall width up to 60 inches.
  • Effective product carrying surface equals overall belt width.
  • Travels at speeds of 150 feet per minute and higher.
  • Tangential tension rating of at least 600 lbs.
  • Weight-bearing capacity of 15 lbs. per lineal foot and higher.
  • Ability to collapse to a 1.5 turn radius ratio.
  • Double rows of extra heavy-duty reinforcing bars plus three rows of heavy duty links on the outside edge – engineered to be stronger where you need it.
