We supply belts with several joint types, all made to Klingspor standards. The right joint depends on the work and the machine you use. The usual types are shown below.
F1 joint
Diagonal cut, glued overlap.
F2 joint
Diagonal cut, glued overlap. The grain tips are completely removed from the overlap so the belt runs more smoothly.
F4G joint
Diagonal cut. Butt joint with cloth-reinforced foil backing. Also suitable for unsupported belt work. For demanding applications.
Why the joint matters
The joint is the weakest point of an abrasive belt. Most belt failures and breakages happen there. So choose the right joint for the job, and a supplier who makes strong, durable belts with proper jointing methods and quality checks.
We convert and joint Klingspor belts for customers here in Singapore. Our team has more than 20 years of experience jointing and supplying belts, including belts for the most demanding applications.
