Ashworth's Woven Wire Belts are great for food processing or industrial applications.
WG Woven Wire Conveyor Belts
Ashworth Straight Running Friction Driven Belts are woven wire belts that are drum, as opposed to sprocket, driven. Within this product grouping are a host of woven wire belts, ranging from the simplest, conventional weave designs, to the most complex, tightly-woven compound balance weave belts. Some of our most popular belts are individually featured below. However, construction possibilities for straight running, friction driven belts are practically endless, considering the number of different materials and weave patterns are available. Contact an Ashworth associate for assistance in selecting a straight running friction driven belt that is specifically tailored for your application.
NOTE: Our woven belts are measured for length under tension.
