Range of Tensile
Strength Members​
A. Nylon / Nylon (NN) Carcass
- Lower longitudinal elongation
- Higher tensile strength
- Good flexibility and trough-ability
- Resistance to mildew, moisture and rotting
- Excellent impact resistance
B. Polyester / Nylon (EP) Carcass
- Besides having the advantages as listed for NN carcass belts
- EP belts have the additional advantage of lower longitudinal elongation.
C. Cotton / Cotton (CC) Carcass
- Suitable for most applications
- Good bonding for rubber
- Good fastener holding properties
D. Steel Cord (ST) Carcass
- Good trough-ability
- Very low elongation
- Has tensile strength, well above the other available tensile members
E. Aramid Carcass
- Good trough-ability & Low elongation
- Tensile strengths, equivalent to Steel Cord, yet, very light in weight.
