The A 6Z16 series consists of MXL pitch timing belts with a 0.080 in (2.03 mm) pitch, made of neoprene with nylon covering and fiberglass reinforcement, designed for synchronous power transmission. The belt is available in inch and metric widths, including 3/16 in (4.76 mm), with a breaking strength of 51 lbf per 1/8 in and a working tension of 18 lbf per inch of belt width. It operates within a temperature range of -30°C to +100°C. The 162-teeth configuration corresponds to a pitch length of 12.96 in (329.18 mm) and is offered as a single-sided belt. Belt lengths and tooth counts are standardized across the series, with special widths cut from sleeves available. No other part-specific attributes are defined for A 6Z16-162018 beyond these series-wide characteristics.
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.
