An MXL pitch timing belt, 1/8 inch wide, with Kevlar cord and 175 teeth, designed for synchronous power transmission. The belt is made of polyurethane with a polyester or Kevlar reinforcement, and Kevlar-reinforced belts of this width have a breaking strength of 182 N per 1 mm of belt width for 155 or more grooves. The continuous operating temperature range is -34°C to +85°C, with intermittent capability up to +121°C. The belt has a pitch of 0.080 inch (2.03 mm) and is available in single-sided construction. The exact catalog number A 6B16-175012 is not printed, but the series includes the 175 tooth length with Kevlar cord, as shown by the entry 175 for Polyester Cord G and Kevlar Cord B under the INCH COMPONENT table. A 6B16-175012 appears to be a variant of the A 6(G,B)16(-,M)-X series.
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.
