Metric Cogged V-Belts [XPA-XPB-XPC-XPZ]

Metric Cogged V-belts transfer power between rotating shafts by mounting on metric pulleys and consisting of a single belt with metric dimensions. Their part naming makes them clearly identifiable; they are designated "XP" and non-cogged as "SP." Based on the European standards DIN 7753 and ISO 4184, these V-belts are grouped according to the measures of their cross section and characteristics that affect performance. Metric V-belts with cogged edges feature grooves that span the belt's width. Because the cogs allow the belt to bend and flex against the pulley, they dissipate heat more efficiently than conventional V-belts. Cogged belts work well for drives with twists and turns and small-diameter pulleys. V-belts can be used separately or in combination in wide metric belt drives that can accommodate several V-belts. All four metric cogged v-belt sizes are available from Maxtran. The nominal top width of XPA metric V-belts is 13 mm, and their nominal thickness is 10 mm. The cogged XPB metric V-belts are nominally 13 mm thick and 16 mm wide at the top. The nominal top width of XPC metric V-belts is 22 mm, and their nominal thickness is 18 mm. They are cogged. The nominal top width of XPZ metric V-belts is 10 mm, and their nominal thickness is 8 mm.
