PowerTwist Plus Antistatic V-Belt, A / 4L Profile, 1/2" Width, 100ft Length
PowerTwist Plus Antistatic has the best antistatic properties of any V-belt on the market, easily meeting the ISO 1813:1998 standard. While the standard allows the resistance of the drive belt to be as high as 3.6 mega ohms (3,600,000 ohms), PowerTwist Plus Antistatic typically registers well below 50 ohms, while even the best so called antistatic rubber belts usually measure between a shocking 10,000 – 200,000 ohms. And unlike antistatic rubber V-belts whose antistatic properties may be adversely affected by humidity levels, environmental conditions and wear, the proprietary construction of PowerTwist Plus Antistatic allows the belt to maintain antistatic properties in even the harshest conditions. PowerTwist Plus Antistatic unique “quick connect†belt design provides for fast and easy installation, even on captured or restricted access drives — no tools required. Belts are made up to the required length, by hand, in seconds and can be rolled onto a drive just like a bicycle chain. No need to dismantle drive components or change existing pulleys as PowerTwist Plus Antistatic V-Belts run in industry standard pulley grooves. PowerTwist Plus Antistatic is also ideal for conveying applications that frequently have issues with static electricity, such as glass and solar cell manufacturing. Save money by reducing V-belt inventory – PowerTwist Plus Antistatic V-belts let you safely reduce your V-belt inventory while ensuring you always have the belt you need, on hand. Stock a box each of PowerTwist Plus Antistatic in the two most common cross sections, A/ 4L and B/5L, and you’ll reduce the inventory dollars you have tied up in replacement V-belts and be nearly 100% covered with on-site V-belt availability. There’s also no shelf life concern, making dry rot a thing of the past. Longer belt life – High performance polyurethane/polyester composite materials outperform conventional rubber V-belts and maintain their antistatic properties in harsh environments – handling abrasion, extreme temperatures, and exposure to humidity, oil, grease, water and most common industrial and agricultural chemicals and solvents. High heat is not a problem – PowerTwist Plus Antistatic has an operating temperature range, with no loss of performance, of -40º F to +240º F. Easier, faster installation – Quickly adjustable by hand to any necessary length. Perfectly suited to A/4L and B/5L drives, these belts can be installed on existing pulleys with no changes in set-up. Reduce drive vibration. Conventional rubber V-belts have a continuous tension cord that carries vibration like a guitar string. This vibration can cause noise and lead to reduced component life. PowerTwist Plus reduces this vibration by 50% thanks to the segmented twist-lock design which acts as a vibration dampener from link to link. Minimized maintenance time – To re-tension, just roll the belt off, take out a link and roll it back on; no need to move any drive components. A permanent replacement belt – fit it and move on to the next job.
