DuraFab® Anti-Static belts are specially formulated to dissipate
surface static build-up during operation. These belts are black
in color, are manufactured from woven fiberglass substrates,
have an optimum PTFE (Fluon®) content and a proprietary additive.
The Anti-Static Belts have the highest thermal conductivity (best
heat transfer) of any of the DuraFab® products and is best
used in applications where surface static dissipation is desired
such as, garment fusing and fabric lamination applications.

DuraFab® Belts are engineered to retain the distinctive properties
of PTFE; however, by adding a glass fabric to the matrix, AFC
is able to obtain the added benefits of dimensional stability,
excellent tensile strength and extremely low elongation (<1%).
DuraFab® Belts have received USDA approval for food processing
and handling, and are FDA compliant (21 CFR177.1550). In addition,
the DuraFab® belts can operate in temperatures from -400°F
(-240°C) under static conditions and -100°F (-73°C)
under dynamic conditions up to 550°F (288°C).
