UsFlex® Family
Premium, longest-lasting fabric belts
Innovative straight warp weave — stronger and tougher than standard plied belts.
Fenner Dunlop UsFlex®
Carcass Construction
UsFlex® is a revolutionary concept in straight-warp conveyor belts.
UsFlex is different from the competition. We use heavyweight straight yarns in parallel planes – lengthwise and crosswise – locked together with a unique binder to concentrate belt strength.
Our parallel planes reinforce like the multiple plies of traditional belts but without the crimping that weakens and stretches the yarn. Our binder is a built-in breaker to resist impacts and punctures.

For applications that require lower stretch, UsFlex W is available.

Breaker fabrics
DynaFlex™
DynaFlex™ breaker fabrics are engineered with the properties and characteristics of our premium UsFlex® carcass construction.
DynaFlex™ is used primarily as a breaker fabric for our DynaFlight™ steel cord belting and in some cases for select fabric carcasses.
For protection beyond detection use the new standard in breaker fabrics: DynaFlex™.
Aramid Reinforced
KordFlex™
Premium aramid reinforced straight warp carcass
Like steel, Aramid fibers offer high tenacity, low elongation, and good thermal stability. But unlike steel, Aramid retains low density, chemical and fatigue resistance, and the positive handling qualities of synthetic fiber.
We use heavyweight straight yarns in parallel planes-lengthwise and crosswise. The carcass binder is a built-in breaker that resists impact & puncture.
