About Z-pan belts

Z-pan conveyor belts are made of interlocking Z-shaped plates that mount to heavy-duty chains to form the conveying surface. Z-shaped pans create a troughed belt texture that captures small materials and secures them on inclines. The pans’ stainless steel construction withstands impact, abrasion, and extreme temperatures.

Z-pan belt advantages

The Z-pan design creates a durable, troughed conveying surface. Z-pan belts handle heavy loads and small, loose, abrasive, or hot materials in harsh industrial environments, from abrasive metal scrap in recycling facilities to heavy components in the automotive industry.

Key Features

Z-pan conveyor belts come in 6, 9, and 12-inch pitch options and standard belt widths up to 108 inches. Additional features include 1/4–1/2 inch thick precision-formed Z-style pans, precision die-punched wings, single flanged and sintered steel rollers, solid locking pins, and add-on options such as cleats, upgraded chains, larger rollers, and more.
