The ST1600
High Temperature Resistant Steel Cord Conveyor Belt is a premium industrial solution engineered for demanding environments where thermal stability, durability, and continuous operation are non-negotiable. Designed to withstand extreme heat while maintaining structural integrity, this belt serves as a critical component in high-temperature manufacturing processes across steelmaking, cement production, and glass fabrication industries worldwide. This robust conveyor system combines advanced materials science with precision engineering to deliver reliable performance under conditions that would degrade conventional belts. Its reinforced
steel cord core provides exceptional tensile strength, ensuring minimal elongation even under heavy loads and prolonged exposure to elevated temperatures. The outer cover layer is formulated with specialized heat-resistant compounds that remain stable up to 1450°C—ideal for transporting molten materials or preheated solids without deformation or degradation. Key features include superior thermal resistance, excellent flex fatigue life, low creep characteristics, and enhanced abrasion resistance. These properties make the ST1600 an optimal choice for applications requiring consistent throughput, reduced downtime, and long service life in harsh operating conditions. Unlike standard rubber belts, it resists cracking, delamination, and warping when exposed to cyclic heating and cooling cycles—a common challenge in metallurgical and ceramic processing plants. In the steel industry, the ST1600 excels during sintering operations by conveying hot sintered ore at over 1000°C directly from the sinter machine to downstream processing units. It also supports blast furnace feeding by reliably moving coke, iron ore, and limestone under intense heat and mechanical stress. In cement manufacturing, the belt efficiently transports clinker from rotary kilns to coolers and storage silos, enduring temperatures near 1450°C without compromising safety or output efficiency. Additionally, it plays a vital role in raw material preheating systems, improving thermal energy utilization and reducing overall fuel consumption. For glass producers, the ST1600 enables seamless transfer of molten glass from melting furnaces to forming machines, maintaining dimensional accuracy and minimizing product defects caused by belt instability. In glass fiber production, it ensures smooth transport of high-temperature glass batches to drawing equipment, supporting uninterrupted filament formation and enhancing fiber quality. Users report significant improvements in operational continuity, lower maintenance costs, and extended belt lifespan compared to traditional alternatives. Many operators highlight its ability to reduce unplanned stoppages due to thermal damage—an issue frequently encountered with less resilient materials. The belt’s compatibility with automated control systems further enhances integration into modernized production lines. Common questions often revolve around maximum temperature tolerance, recommended maintenance intervals, and compatibility with existing conveyor frames. While specific parameters may vary based on application, the ST1600 typically performs reliably within continuous operating ranges of 800–1450°C, depending on load type and environmental factors. Routine inspections every 3–6 months are advised to monitor wear patterns and ensure optimal tensioning. Installation flexibility allows retrofitting into most standard conveyor setups, making it a practical upgrade path for facilities seeking improved resilience. Whether you're managing a steel mill, cement plant, or glass factory, the ST1600 offers a durable, high-performance alternative for handling extreme thermal challenges. With its proven track record in global industrial settings, this belt delivers not only technical excellence but also measurable economic benefits through increased uptime and reduced replacement frequency.
