40 B T 8MGT 8.0 3.4 5.9 14MGT 14.0 6.0 10.2 SYNCHRONOUS BELTS FOR EXTREMELY POWERFUL INDUSTRIAL DRIVES POLY CHAIN® GT2 Polyurethane synchronous belt Poly Chain® GT2 has been designed for optimum performance also on high torque, low speed drives in any industrial application. This lightweight belt features increased power ratings of up to 40% higher than previous constructions (Poly Chain® GT), while maintaining the same long service life. Poly Chain® GT2 operates on Poly Chain® GT pulleys. Its construction is based on innovative state-of-the-art design. The body and teeth of the belt are made of a unique polyurethane compound, making the belt tough and virtually immune to abrasion and chemical attack. Poly Chain® GT2 belts make an excellent alternative to roller chains, requiring neither re-tensioning nor lubrication. Space-saving, weight-saving and money-saving, Poly Chain® GT2 drives offer a long and reliable service life. Identification Three part number on the back of the belt indicating pitch code, pitch length and width. Construction • Teeth and body are made of a lightweight polyurethane compound, specially blended for adhesion to the cords and fabric. This uniquely formulated polyurethane makes the belt tough and virtually immune to abrasion and chemicals. • The aramid tensile cords provide extraordinary power-carrying capacity. • Flex fatigue life of aramid is exceptional, and its high impact strength withstands shocks and surge loading. • The fabric covering the teeth is highly resistant to oil, chemicals, pollutants, corrosion and abrasion. It is exceptionally durable and remains fully operational under extreme temperatures from -54°C up to +85°C. • The fabric facing reduces friction with the pulley, thereby minimising temperature build-up. Advantages • Substantially increased power rating. • High efficiency positive drive. • Maintenance-free: no lubrication or re-tensioning needed. • Savings in space, weight and money.
