Plastic flights Our plastic flights are made of wear-resistant nylon and are flexible. As the chain is carried by the plastic flights, it eliminates the steel-on-steel contact, this will lead to saving energy and a considerable noise reduction. There are various kinds of flights available: Nylon, Nylon with Glassfiber reinforcement, Zytel and FDA-quality. Nylon flights • Reduce noice considerably, • flexible / bendable under high pressure • low frictional resistance, saving up to 20 % of the energy, • less costly; less wear and tear of the bottom plate and the chain, • eliminates the need for guiding and wearing strips, • temperature resistant between -20 °C and + 70 °C, • very quickly and easily assembled or replaced. Nylon flights glass fiber reinforced • Same qualities as the Nylon flights but more durable and less flexible for heavier duty. Zytel flights • Same qualities as the Nylon flights but temperature resistant between +70°C and +110°C. FDA quality flights • Same qualities as the Nylon flights but also suitable for food purposes.

Plastic profiles Plastic profiles are made out of different materials, such as: Nylon, PU, and UHMPE. These may be used as flights or as scrapers. The profiles are available in various different versions. This page shows the most common used models. Cleaners Plastic profile attached to the steel scraper. Profile C Plastic profile pushed over the steel scraper. Half moon The so-called ‚half moon‘ profile is attached to the steel scraper. [email protected] www.bechtel-wuppertal.
