Back in high school (seven years ago!!!
) my team used these in 2009 for a ball conveyor, just using the barbed connectors to join them, around ~2" rollers. Worked well, I don't think they ever pulled themselves apart. The belts may have stretched a bit over time since they are hollow and relatively thin, so have some extra barbs so you can shorten longer runs over time. Welded poly-cord is probably more robust but this was good enough for 2009.
I personally prefer the orange flat stuff since it's a bit tackier and has nice self-centering properties.
