Since installing Dunlop BVXS belt two years ago the operating life has improved dramatically while the maintenance costs including the need to re-splice have reduced significantly. The thicker skim of the BVXS assisted with improved load support, which has also contributed to the longer belt life. The previous belt was supplied by a large UK service company. First repairs on the previous belt were made only 3 months after installation.
