Alternate plaction tread types
Just wondering if anyone has looked into some of the incline conveyor belting surfaces other than the usual roughtop and wedgetop patterns. It'd be nice to have something with a bit more grip than roughtop, but that lasts longer than the standard soft-rubber wedgetop.
In particular, I wonder how well something like this might work:
I've also noticed that some places sell wedgetop in black SBR - does anyone know how this compares to the standard tan rubber stuff, in terms of grip and wear?
