The overlapping of the profiles/cleats assures a smooth return run and thus minimizing the damage caused, by the return idlers, to the profiles/cleats. Incline angles achievable incline angles are dependent on type of chevron selected and the material characteristics, such as, lump size, flowability, dry/wet, shape etc.  RANGE OF CHEVRON BELTS  Belt Width : 350 mm (14") to 1600 mm (64"). Type of Fabric : EP (Polyester-Nylon), NN/PP (Nylon-Nylon). Profile/Cleat height  : 15 mm, 25 mm, 30 mm. No. of plies  : 1 to 5. Length  : Standard roll length is 100 meters. However, tailor -made lengths as per specific requirements can be produced.The restriction on length over and above100 meters is subject to transportable roll diameter and weight. Duty of Belting  : Type I, II and III. Cover Grades  : M-24, N-17, M-25, SAR-120, SAR-90, SAR-60 , OR, FR, HR/HR-T1, SHR/ HR-T2, HR-T3 (180°C), Hygienic (Food Grade), OR-HR. Standards followed  : IS 1891 (Part I, II, III, IV & V), BS 490, CAN-CSA- M422-M87-C,  ISO-340, ISO 4195(Part I & II), AS 1332, DIN 22102, RMA, SANS  Chevron Conveyor Belts are specially designed for the effective material handling in the applications where the angle of incline is higher (> 18°) for the material to be conveyed and the material tends to slide on a conventional conveyor belt. Chevron belts are suitable for transporting a wide range of bulk materials and also for unit loads such as bags, bales, crates, sacks etc. Chevron belts can achieve high conveying capacities even at inclinations of up to 40 - 45° In contrast to the profiles / cleats that are vulcanized separately on to the flat conveyor belt, the profiles/cleats on the Chevron belts are integrally molded into the top cover of the belt during the manufacturing process. The advantage of specially designed integrally molded Chevron belts is that the life of profile/cleat is enhanced due to low flexing/bending stress generated while negotiating around pulleys, this feature also permits the use of smaller pulley diameters.
