Cogged Wedge Belt XPA757
Cogged Wedge belts are very similar in design to traditional v-belts. They are made using base rubber compound with heat-set pre-stretched polyester cords runnig through the length of the belt. These cords transmit tensile force and withstand shock loads. The belt also has a polyester cotton wrapping that grips to the pulley in which the belt is situated. The difference between a wedge belt and a traditional v-belt is that a wedge belt has a deeper cross section. This results in an increase in surface area allowing the belt to transmit a greater power rating and due to its design, can be used with small pulley diameters. XPA section wedge belts are both temperature and oil resistant.
XPA section belts are used in many applications including agricultural machinery, conveyor and fan assemblies, construction equipment, automotive parts and more.
