The MXL timing belt with 212 teeth, 3/16 inch width, and Kevlar cord is a synchronous drive belt designed for precision motion transfer. It features a polyurethane body and a polyester or Kevlar reinforcement cord, with a pitch of 0.080 inch (2.03 mm). The belt has a breaking strength of 130 lbf per 1/8 inch of width for Kevlar cord when exceeding 155 grooves, equivalent to 182 N per 1 mm width. It operates continuously from -30°F to +185°F (-34°C to +85°C) and can withstand intermittent exposure up to +250°F (+121°C). The belt's physical dimensions and tooth profile conform to MXL standards.
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.
