A 6G 6-360031 belongs to a series of 40 D.P. (2.07 mm pitch) timing belts with a 5/16 inch (8 mm) width and polyester cord reinforcement, designed for synchronous power transmission. The belt is made of polyurethane with a continuous temperature range of -18°C to +82°C and an intermittent upper limit of +121°C. Breaking strength is 182 N per 1 mm of belt width for belts with 151 or more grooves. The part features 360 grooves and a pitch length of 29.376 inches (746.15 mm). It is a single-sided belt, and special widths can be cut from stock sleeves. The part number format matches the series' catalog numbering system, though the exact code is not listed, indicating a series fallback.
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.
