Zusammenfassung:	A process for fabricating an endless flexible seamed belt, substantially equivalent in performance to a seamless belt, includes forming the belt by joining two ends of a substrate material. Each end of the substrate has mutually mating elements in interlocking relationship. The surfaces of the mutually mating elements have a gap therebetween into which bonding material is applied such that there is no substantial thickness differential between the seam and the portions of the belt adjacent the seam. The bonding material is then cured by any known means and post-cured to improve the stability of the bonding material and to achieve an effectively electrically invisible seam for an electrostatographic imaging system operating at high temperatures.
