Belt reinforcement consists of galvanized steel cord and core rubber which possesses superior adhesive property. Belt body comprises the reinforcement covered with top and bottom rubber layers. Steel cord is composed of left and right twisting wire and arranged evenly and longitudinally in the belt.
The basic strength material is steel cords placed at fixed pitch, core compound and cover compounds are added in pre-formatting process under constant tension. The core rubber ensures adequate penetration among the steel cords. This will minimise the corrosion of steel in case of any damage to the belt. Neelkanth manufactures steel cord conveyor belts to various strengths & covers conforming to various National and International standards. Neelkanth manufactures Steel Cord Conveyor Belts upto 2400 mm width.
 
Steel cords
The Cords used in Neelkanth Steelcord Belt is made of specially developed High Carbon Steel. During manufacturing of Belts, these cords are held longitudinally in a single layer under pre-determined tension to ensure proper alignment. The Cords are Zinc coated to ensure superior bonding between Cord and Rubber as well as protect the same against corrosion.
 
The Cords may have several types of configurations like 7 *7 , 1*19+7*7 , 7*19 etc. The steel Cords, unlike free-running cable, do not need any lubrication. Hence the core is not a lubricant but an additional reinforcement. So that under load, the cords do not tend to creep.
 
Structure of Steel cords
 
Construction of steel cords:
Twisted wires make strands and strands make cords. The direction of the strand is opposite to the direction of wires as illustrated. Moreover the cords are placed in the belt as "S" & "Z" alternatively.
