Habasit Cleandrive™ Aramid-Reinforced Monolithic Conveyor Belts
The monolithic belt design produced by Habasit’s dedicated manufacturing technology meets food customers’ most stringent hygiene requirements, while also delivering exceptional performance and cost-efficiency.
First, belts are completely free of fabric members that can fray during use which pose food safety risks. The solid yet flexible belt design is also free of the cavities, joining rods, and crevices normally found in hinged belts, making Habasit Cleandrive™ belts very easy to clean.
Second, Habasit’s Cleandrive™ products offer superior life over the competition. The Aramid core (Kevlar) is the key to that success. Because of this, there are fewer breakdowns and costly repairs meaning you will minimize lost production time and revenue. These products allow you to eliminate long and disruptive sanitation procedures, while also lowering your risk for serious contamination and potential recalls.
It’s stronger, it doesn’t stretch, it’s cleaner and it’s USDA/FDA accepted.

Don’t Just Take Our Word For It: Success Story
A food producer complained of sprocket engagement troubles with a competitor’s belt, caused by expansion and contraction of a belt due to the excess presence of oil. To improve belt tracking and lifetime, the producer required a food-approved, positive drive belt that would not expand and contract due to excessive oiliness.
Habasit satisfied this requirement with their Cleandrive™ belt which features a premium polyether TPU material as well as aramid reinforcement cords, offering lower absorbency and superior dimensional stability.
The result? Once installed, the food producer experienced no issues with sprocket engagement and the belt showed no signs of wear, even after several months of performance. Overall, the food producer experienced strong savings through dramatically improved belt lifetime:
- At least a 50% increase in belt lifetime
- Belt replacement costs cut in half
- Total annual savings surpassing $23,000

Don’t Get Steamed! Switch to Continental’s Crimped Steam Hose
Don’t Get Steamed!
Switch to Continental’s Crimped Steam Hose
Success Story: Safety
A local laundry facility was using a Boss Ground 4 Bolt Joint Coupling to secure their steam hoses to their equipment.
Due to steam leaking out from around the couplings when OSHA came out for an inspection, they were cited for unsafe hose practices and given 30 days to remedy. Shortly thereafter, Sunset Industrial was called out to inspect the steam hoses.
Sunset’s Solution
Upon inspection, Sunset found that not only was the customer using an unreliable fitting, but that the fitting was installed upside down and, in addition, had one of the four bolts missing from the coupling.
Sunset Industrial took proper measurements and replaced all existing steam hoses with Continental’s, one-piece, Crimped Steam Hose. This resulted in:
- Reduced Steam Loss/Profit Leaks
- Addressed OSHA Citation
- Ensured a more reliable and safe steam hose.
- Upon installing the initial hose, the customer eventually switched out all hoses to the safer and more reliable design.
Continental’s Crimped Steam Hose
A leaky steam hose can “hiss away” 2.6 lbs. of steam per minute. Annually, that can really add up! That’s why Continental has developed a Crimped Steam Hose Program. The program combines their premium steam hose with couplings specifically designed for steam assemblies that reduce leaks, lessen electrostatic discharges and cut costs.
Features & Benefits
- Steam Hose Testing: tested to the absolute highest standards to guarantee your safety.
- Eliminates Dangerous Leaks
- Improves Safety
- Since the ferrule bites to wire, you achieve electric continuity to reduce the risk of static discharges & shocks.
- A crimped coupling is a permanent attachment that reduces potential leaks, blowouts & the need to retighten clamps.
- The low-profile fittings allow for hand tight connection & improved connection sealing face with high-temperature Viton O-ring to eliminate leaks.
- No more need for repeated retightening of bolt clamps & chance of injury.

Chain, Lubrication, Rust, & Food Don’t Mix! There’s A Better Way.
Chain, Lubrication, Rust, and Food Don’t Mix!
There is a better way.
Carbon makes the difference! Higher power capacity, longer service lives, and hardly any initial tension loss. With a newly developed carbon tension member at its heart, Continental’s Conti® Synchrochain Carbon is launching itself into the leading position among the world’s highest-performance timing belts.
Customer Success Story:
Issue
The customer’s Chain Drive was a maintenance nightmare. The chain would stretch over time requiring constant maintenance. The drive needed to be greased constantly, which is not sanitary practice in a food plant. In addition, the conveyor drive was located overhead, so getting to the drive in order to conduct maintenance was extremely difficult.
Solution
With the help of their partners, the customer decided to switch to Continental’s Conti® Synchrochain Carbon. The new drive reduced maintenance costs and is nearly maintenance-free. In addition, there is no downtime due to constant maintenance or replacement.
More About Continental’s Conti® Synchrochain Carbon:
Benefits
- Highest Quality Construction with Double Your Money Back Guarantee
- One of the world’s highest-performing belts – transmitting up to 5 times more power than conventional timing belts.
- Lowers your maintenance costs because it never needs oiling or re-tensioning.
- Heavy-duty timing belt for all extreme applications including replacing roller chain drives.
- Continental’s Conti® Synchrochain Carbon makes the difference with its extremely stiff carbon cord, unrivaled performance level, and polyurethane developed in-house helping to:
- Maximize Lifetime
- Reduce Maintenance
- Reduce System Width by Up to 80%
- Replace Chains
- Maximize Strength & Resistance
Sunset Approved:
The Proof Is in The Performance
With Continental’s Double Your Money Warranty, you have a no-risk reason to make the upgrade to Continental’s ContiTech power transmission belts.
Belt after belt, year after year, Continental’s power transmission belts deliver a standard of quality that is simply unmatched by the competition. And now, we can prove it to you.
Install any Continental ContiTech power transmission belt. If it does not outlast the belt it replaced, we will give you double your money back. It is that simple!

Sunset Price Match When You Make the Switch to Dodge
Doing What It Takes to Keep Industry Running
Are you tired of changing out your bearings due to grease washout and corrosion from caustic cleansers? Now is the time to make the switch to Dodge Food Safe and IP69 bearings.
Sunset and Dodge are working together to offer you Price Match when you make the switch from your current bearings to Dodge (certain criteria apply). See if Dodge Food Safe Bearings will work for you.
Dodge Food Safe Bearings
Dodge Food Safe bearings solve two of the most prominent industry challenges when it comes to bearings – grease washout and corrosion. Food Safe bearings feature a patented lubrication protection system, superior coating, and smooth design to improve cleanability and maximize life in applications that require high pressure, caustic washdown.
All Food Safe bearings are IP69 rated for water, and with product registration, offer an unprecedented one-year warranty against failure due to water ingress. Offered in both standard and stand-off housings.
Cost-Saving Benefits
- Smooth stainless-steel housing without a grease zerk designed to minimize harboring points
- IP69 for water rating ensures suitability for aggressive, clean in place washdown procedures
- Laser identification on the housing and insert to minimize crevices that can harbor bacteria
- Sealed and lubed for life bearings to minimize maintenance costs
- Unique insert design with stainless steel base material with a revolutionary KleenTec top coating for enhanced corrosion resistance against common cleaning agents
- Maximum life cage prevents grease washout
- Hydro armor seal protects internal rotating elements from water ingress

Customer Success Story
A poultry processing facility was seeking document savings and the elimination of downtime costs throughout their plant. A major problem was identified on their bird-bath application, which is extremely wet and leads to premature bearing failure due to grease washout. Their current bearings were only lasting 2-3 weeks, and the client decided to make the switch to Dodge Food Safe Bearings to see if they could decrease maintenance.
By working with the client’s maintenance staff, the Dodge bearings were installed in July 2018 and were still running 12 months later. Dodge Food Safe bearings took a problem application which would have used a minimum of 24 bearings over a 12-month period down to only 2 bearings saving the facility time and money.
Sunset and Dodge have the answer.

Critical Gearmotor Repair
Critical Gearmotor Failure. Damaged Shipment.
Sunset to the Rescue.
Doing What It Takes to Keep Industry Running
Customer Success Story
Critical Motor Failure: Recently, a local customer contacted Sunset to resolve a critical gearmotor failure resulting in production downtime. Sunset Industrial arranged for four gearmotors to be shipped overnight to the customer to get them up and running as quickly as possible.
Damaged Shipment: Upon receipt, however, Sunset and its customer learned that two units were damaged by UPS during transit.
Sunset contacted UPS for a resolution only to learn that UPS wanted to send a representative to inspect the units and see what caused the damage, a process that was going to take a week. Plus, there was an additional THREE to FOUR-WEEK process to determine if credit was to be issued!
The client didn’t have that kind of time to wait.
Sunset then contacted the manufacturer to see if they could help. But due to an inspection and part replacements, it would take at least two weeks to resolve the matter.
The Sunset Solution
Knowing the customer was down and could not afford to lose another day, the Sunset Industrial Service Team stepped into high gear (pun intended). Gearmotors were picked up from the customer that same day and the damaged parts were identified by the Sunset team.
Replacement parts were then shipped in overnight and the gearmotors were repaired and delivered to the customer within 24 hours of identifying the issue.
Outcome:
Customer installed the gearmotors, production resumed, and day was saved!
