Steel or KEVLAR
Reinforcement Both Steel and KEVLAR offer high
stiffness and tensile strength. Mectrol flat belt has much less
stretch than a traditional flat belt, therefore, it will not run
properly on a crowned pulley. Flat pulleys with flanges for
tracking are required.
Linear Placement of
Cords All cords in Mectrols linear belt are located
in the belt parallel to the belt edges. As opposed to belts that
are produced with a helically wound cord, these belts will exert
little or no side force making them much easier to track.
Other advantages to Mectrol flat
belts No re-tensioning required High operating
speeds No lubrication required
