Optibelt-ZRK
Timing Belts

     The loothed timing belt is used in modern automobile engines to drive the camshaft, which controls the combustion gases by valves and which must be timed with the crankshaft.

     The design of the cross section and the structure of the belt have been the subject of ongoing development aimed at optimising the synchronous drive.

     One result of this development for example is increased operational reliability in a minimum of space.

Please refer to our range list for details of the extensive optibelt-ZRK programme.

Design Features:

• Synchronous drive element
• Shear resistant teeth with precision tooth spacing
• Low stretch, glass fibre tension cord
• Flat belt design
• Durable, robust top surface
• Protective fabric on tooth side with low coefficient of friction

Applications
Use in automobile design for driving engine camshafts.

Application Benefits

• synchronous speed transmission, low bearing loads
• high power transmission, extreme reliability, precise engagement of pulley teeth, high temperature resistance
• high tension resistance, no retightening, maintenance free
• very flexible, small pulleys possible
• protection of the tension cord against mechanical wear, oil and moisture
• low engagement friction, long service life, very smooth running, high efficiency
