MXL timing belts with a 0.080-inch (2.03 mm) pitch are designed for synchronous power transmission, featuring a polyurethane body and either polyester or Kevlar cord for reinforcement. The belts are available in inch and metric widths, including 5/16 inch (7.94 mm), and are rated for continuous operation from -30°F to +185°F (-34°C to +85°C) with intermittent exposure up to +250°F (+121°C). Breaking strength for Kevlar-cord belts with 249 grooves is 182 N per 1 mm of belt width. Belts are sold as pre-cut lengths with specified groove counts and are compatible with matching inch or metric pulleys.
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.
