MXL pitch timing belt, 1/8 inch (3.2 mm) wide, with Kevlar cord, 40 teeth, and a pitch length of 81.28 mm. The belt is made of polyurethane with a balanced Kevlar reinforcement, designed for synchronous power transmission. Breaking strength is 80 lbf per 1/8 inch of belt width for belts with fewer than 155 grooves. Operating temperature range is continuous from -30°F to +185°F (-34°C to +85°C), with intermittent capability up to +250°F (+121°C). The part number A 6B16-040012 corresponds to a variant within the A 6(G,B)16(-,M)-X series, with Kevlar cord and 40-groove configuration as specified in the catalog.
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.
