MXL timing belts with a 0.080 inch (2.03 mm) pitch and 1/8 inch (3.175 mm) width are made of polyurethane with a polyester or Kevlar cord reinforcement. Kevlar-reinforced belts have a breaking strength of 80 lbf per 1/8 inch for fewer than 155 grooves and 130 lbf per 1/8 inch for 155 or more grooves. Operating temperature ranges from -30°F to +185°F continuously and up to +250°F intermittently. Belts are available in inch and metric sizes with tooth counts from 10 to 515 and corresponding pitch lengths from 0.80 inch to 1046.48 mm. The belt width is 1/8 inch for this series. No dimensions for belt thickness or cross-section are provided.
For power transmission applications, a belt and pulley drive system are one of the most common and cost-effective methods used to transfer motion in a drive system. synchronous timing belts, with their defined pattern and evenly spaced teeth, mate with matching timing belt pulleys and idlers to drive motion in precision equipment. When synchronization between shafts is not a priority, V- belts are an excellent alternative. V-belts ride in the groove of compatible V-belt pulleys and idlers. Flat belts find considerable usage in applications requiring small pulley diameters, high belt surface speeds, low noise levels, low weight, and inertia. Round belts or O-Rings are used with grooved pulleys. A cable drive system is another means of transmitting synchronous motion. Consisting of an extremely flexible cable and uniquely grooved pulleys, the Synchromesh Drive system offers design possibilities previously not achievable. Timing belt and cable accessories, belt tensioners and tension testers assist in the maintenance and operation of a belt drive system.
