Woven wire oven belt

Oven Bands & Baking Oven Belts

Baking bands and oven belts for bread, biscuit and bakery ovens.

Oven Bands & Baking Oven Belts.

Your oven band carries every product through the bake, so it needs to track straight and last. Wire Belt Systems has supplied wire belts across Southern Africa since 1995, to food manufacturers including RCL Foods and Sovereign Chicken.

We supply carbon steel baking bands, carbon steel and stainless steel biscuit bands, and wire mesh oven belts from Cambridge Engineered Solutions, as an authorised distributor. Every band comes with material certificates and technical support.

Oven Band FAQs

What is the difference between an oven band and an oven belt?
Bakeries use both names for the conveyor that carries product through the oven. It can be a carbon steel baking band or a wire mesh oven belt.
What sizes do carbon steel baking bands come in?
We supply carbon steel baking bands in the length you need. The most common widths are 1,500 mm and 3,000 mm.
Do you supply biscuit bands in stainless steel?
Yes. We supply biscuit bands in both carbon steel and stainless steel, with specifications to suit your line.
Can you help us choose a band?
Yes. Send us details of your oven, your product and your current band, and our team will recommend the right band and material.
How long does a new belt take?
Our belts are made to order by overseas manufacturers, so lead time depends on the belt and how it is shipped. As a guide, it ranges from about 30 days ex works plus a week of airfreight, to around 8 weeks ex works plus 6 to 8 weeks of sea freight to South Africa. Ask us for a lead time on your belt when you request a quote.
Can you install the belt?
Yes. Our trusted installation partners fit the belt on site and stay until the hot run test to make sure it performs.
