Re: Cleated Tread

I don't think you would have an issue. I used conveyor belt on one of our previous robots (2006 I believe). the issue you might run into is stitching the conveyor belt together at the ends. In industry this is typically done with a crimp on 'lace' with a stainless wire used as the pin.

Re: Cleated Tread

I would guarantee that this stuff was actually conveyor belt long before it was wheel traction material.
