Common questions on this part
The letter 'A' designates the classical cross-section profile of 13 mm top width and 8 mm height. The number '48' represents the inside circumference (Li) of the belt in inches (48 inches = 1219 mm). Its datum pitch length is 1249 mm.
Yes. PIX-Force classical belts are produced to tight manufacturing tolerances, enabling matched-set installation on multi-groove pulleys without unequal tension distribution or premature individual belt wear.
Deflect the belt at the centre of the span using a spring scale or PIX tension gauge. The deflection force for a Section A belt is typically 1.0 to 1.5 kg per belt for an 80 mm span. Check and re-tension after the first 24 hours of running-in.
Yes. The PIX-Force Section A belt is ISO 1813 certified antistatic with surface resistivity below 10^6 ohms, preventing electrostatic sparks in grain elevators, flour mills, and sawdust-laden environments.
