Spanjaard Belt Dressing is a tacky anti-slip treatment designed for belt drive systems where power transmission efficiency is affected by belt slip, noise, or surface glazing. This product is engineered to increase surface adhesion between the belt and pulley, allowing belts to transmit torque more effectively under load. Its formulation adheres strongly to belt surfaces without dissolving in water, making it suitable for damp or humid operating environments where ordinary belt treatments lose effectiveness. The product is compatible with a wide range of belt materials and is used to stabilise belt performance without dismantling machinery or interrupting normal operation.

• High Tack Adhesion - Spanjaard Belt Dressing forms a tacky surface film that increases belt-to-pulley friction rather than reducing it. The formulation has a measured density of approximately 0.75 g per ml at 25 °C, enabling uniform spray coverage and controlled film build-up. This tack-enhancing layer improves grip consistency across the belt contact area, reducing slip under variable load conditions.

  
  

• Slip Reduction Effect - Increased surface adhesion directly reduces belt slip during operation. In belt-driven systems, even minor slip levels of 2 to 5 percent can significantly reduce power transmission efficiency. By restoring belt traction, the product helps maintain stable rotational speed and improves torque transfer efficiency without altering belt tension settings.

  
  

• Noise Suppression - Belt squeal and vibration noise are commonly caused by surface hardening and uneven friction. The tacky film dampens micro-slippage between belt and pulley surfaces, reducing high-frequency vibration that leads to audible squealing. This effect is particularly noticeable during startup and load changes when belts experience peak stress.

  
  

• Material Protection - The dressing helps protect belts from surface drying, cracking, and glazing. By maintaining surface flexibility, it slows degradation caused by heat and friction. Operating temperature stability from approximately minus 20 °C to 110 °C ensures the film remains effective across typical industrial and automotive belt operating ranges.

  
  

• Moisture Resistance - The formulation is not soluble in water, allowing it to remain effective in wet or humid environments. This moisture resistance helps prevent loss of adhesion caused by condensation or washdown, maintaining belt performance in conditions where untreated belts commonly experience rapid traction loss.

• Automotive Systems - Apply Spanjaard Belt Dressing directly to the belt surface while the engine is off, ensuring even coverage along the belt length. After application, run the engine briefly to allow the tacky film to distribute across the pulley contact area. This use helps stabilise belt traction in drive belts experiencing slip or squeal due to surface glazing or wear.

  
  

• Industrial Machinery - In conveyor and compressor systems, apply the product to belts during scheduled maintenance intervals. Light, even spraying onto the belt surface while rotating the system manually ensures controlled adhesion build-up. This method helps maintain consistent belt grip and reduces downtime caused by belt slippage under continuous load.

  
  

• Textile Equipment - For textile looms and packaging machines, apply the dressing sparingly to avoid excessive film accumulation. The tacky coating improves belt traction without increasing tension, helping maintain smooth belt motion and reducing uneven speed variation during continuous operation cycles.

  
  

• Household Appliances - On washing machines, tumble dryers, and vacuum cleaners, apply a thin layer of dressing to belts showing early signs of squeal or slip. This application extends belt service life by restoring grip and reducing friction-related wear without requiring belt replacement.

  
  

• Agriculture Equipment - For tractors and harvesters operating in dusty or humid outdoor conditions, apply the product to clean belt surfaces before operation. The water-resistant tacky film helps prevent traction loss caused by moisture exposure, supporting stable belt performance during prolonged field use.
