TPU (Thermoplastic Polyurethane)

Polyurethane is extremely wear and fatigue resistant and at the same time highly flexible. TPU is abrasion- and chemical-resistant. TPU belts replace engineered chain, plastic modular chain, steel cable, ball screw systems, and more. In all of these applications, TPU offers clean and quiet performance, easier cleaning, incredible strength, and absolute precision. And, like all Gates belt solutions, no lubrication is ever required.
