Series 888Decrease total cost of ownership in water-intensive food-processing applications with the Intralox Series 888 Medium Slot Stainless Steel Link (SSL) belt.
Originally developed for blanchers, this robust belt is made of Enduralox polypropylene, a material that withstands chemical exposure and temperature cycling. Its composition substantially extends service life, reducing upkeep and replacement costs. The belt features custom-sized slots—ideal for drainage of smaller products like vegetables, pastas, and grains.
- 26% open area optimizes drainage and airflow, reducing energy consumption
- Flush, molded-in sideguards ensure product containment and minimize contamination risks
- Unheaded, barn door–style rod retention system simplifies maintenance and installation
- Stainless-steel links and rods increase belt strength and limit thermal belt elongation
- Reliably performs in environments up to 220°F (104°C)
