Standard Oil Skimmer Belts

Corrosion Resistant Steel Belts

One of our most popular belt materials. Works well in most industrial applications where rust inhibitors are not a component of the wash water.

Used On: All belt skimmers except PetroXtractor

Elastomer Belts

Can handle abrasive and harsh environments. Used where rust inhibitors are a component of the wash water.

Used On: All belt skimmers

Standard Polymer Belts

Reinforced to resist stretching, able to withstand reasonably high temperatures (up to 170°F), and textured to retain a small amount of oil thus drawing more oil to itself on subsequent passes. Used where rust inhibitors and temperature are a component of the wash water or where UV sensitivity is an issue. Picks up some emulsified oils.

Used On: All belt skimmers

HT (High Temp) Polymer Belts

Similar to the Standard Polymer but for higher temperature applications (up to 180°F continuous). Also used when a smoother surface is required.

Used On: All belt skimmers

LFO (Fuzzy Belt™) Polymer Belts

Exceptional performance on light, non-viscous hydrocarbons, such as gasoline, where rate of recovery is an important factor. Resists stretching.

Used On: All belt skimmers except Might Mini

Coolant Skimmer Replacement Tubes

For use with tube skimmers in coolant applications.

Standard Tubes

For use with tube skimmers in applications where no heat or harsh chemicals are present.

High-Temp Tubes

For use with tube skimmers in harsh applications where heat and chemicals are present.
