PVC 150 conveyor belt typically refers to a conveyor belt with a PVC (polyvinyl chloride) cover and a fabric reinforcement with a tension rating of 150 pounds per inch of width (or 150 PIW). The thickness of such a conveyor belt can vary depending on the manufacturer and the specific design, but it is usually expressed in terms of its overall thickness or gauge.

PVC in the name indicates that the belt's cover is made from polyvinyl chloride, a type of plastic material that is known for its flexibility and resistance to chemicals, oils, and abrasion. PVC conveyor belts are commonly used in a variety of industries for transporting materials, including food processing, packaging, agriculture, and manufacturing.

150 in the name specifies the tension rating of the belt. A tension rating of 150 PIW means that the belt can withstand a maximum tension force of 150 pounds per inch of width without breaking or stretching excessively. This rating is important for determining the belt's suitability for specific applications, as it ensures that the belt can handle the load and stress associated with conveying materials.
PVC conveyor belts are available in various thicknesses, commonly ranging from 1/8 inch (3.175 mm) to 1/4 inch (6.35 mm) for light to medium-duty applications. However, they can be thicker or thinner depending on the specific requirements of the conveyor system and the materials being conveyed.
