PIX-PolyStretch®-XC Elasticated Moulded Poly-V Belts
PIX-PolyStretch®-XC Multi Ribbed Belts combine the flexibility of flat belts with the power-transmission capability of V-belts. Their multiple precision-grooved ribs provide a large contact area and allow efficient operation on small pulley diameters and compact drive layouts.
Product Description
PIX-PolyStretch®-XC Multi Ribbed Belts are designed for compact power transmission drives where high speed ratios, small pulley diameters, high belt speeds, minimum maintenance and smooth operation are required. The multiple V-shaped ribs increase the effective contact area and support high power transmission in a compact envelope.
The current PIX product page describes the standard range in PJ, PK, PL and PM sections and identifies PIX-PolyStretch®-XC as a multi-ribbed / Poly-V belt family. PIX also states that X'ceed® is available across PH, PJ, PK, PL and PM profiles, with special derivatives including high-temperature, elasticated, topcoat, FRAS and double-sided versions.
