High-Friction Polyurethane to Belt Product Line from Fenner Precision

Fenner Precision, the global leader in the design and development of belts, pulleys and tires for paper propulsion applications, recently announced that a new high-friction polyurethane material is being used in the development of their belt products.

Fenner's M-14 flat belt is the first product to introduce this material. The belt is currently used in high-volume postage meters & mailing systems for one of Fenner's customers.

The properties include a high COF range against paper, and a very stable COF over the life cycle of the product; Kulikowski reported there was no COF change in over one million cycles in the customer's high-volume mail systems.
