In applications that include
mainline, slope,
tripper, panel belt and other applications,
our Glide
Plus belt has proven its dependability. The workhorse
of our underground line-up, millions of feet of Glide
Plus are operating underground worldwide with
outstanding success. The key is our unique
double-faced 2-1 twill fabric design.
DOUBLE-FACED 2/1 TWILL WEAVE
Superior flexibility is further ensured by the unique weave pattern of
Glide Plus. As shown below, the face warp cords on the top surface of the
fabric cross three fill cords, go under one, cross three fill cords, etc.
Beneath the fabric are back warp cords. They are arranged in
the opposite fashion of the face cords, going under three
fill cords, over one, under three, etc. Competitive
belts place their warp cords over three, under
three, etc., which compromises flexibility
and promotes edge fray.

CABLE TWISTED WARP CORD
Within each warp cord are nine
individual strands of polyester cords.
Three sets of three are twisted together,
then twisted into a single cord.

The polyester warp cords of the Glide Plus fabric
are twisted into sets of individual strands, then
fashioned into a cabled cord. Compare the two
configurations, and you’ll find that the Glide Plus
belt provides significantly more
flexibility,
which
enables you to reduce pulley size and costs. And
that’s just the beginning of the Glide Plus belt
savings story.
