Construction and function

PIX X'tra® is built like a Raw-Edge V-belt. The sides lie directly against the pulley grooves and the serrated underside helps the belt bend around the pulleys. The serrations are on the underside and are used for flexibility while still transmitting power through the sides of the belt.

AX is a timing variant of the A profile. The profile, the dimensions 13 x 8 mm and the lengths Li 3500 mm, Ld 3536 mm and La 3550 mm describe the physical size of the belt.

Length measurement

The three lengths describe the belt from each measuring pu . Inner length is Li 3500 mm, effective length is Ld 3536 mm, and outer length is La 3550 mm.

Material

The V-belt is made of rubber with polyester reinforcement. The reinforcement helps the belt to maintain a stable length during operation, while the rubber provides the necessary flexibility around the pulleys.

The timing underside is particularly relevant for smaller pulley diameters, because the belt can bend more easily without becoming unnecessarily stiff.

FAQ

What does AX 138 mean?

AX 138 is the classic supplier designation for the belt. The profile is AX, and the belt must be used with pulleys with the same profile.

What do Li, Ld and La mean?

Li is the internal length, Ld is the effective length, and La is the external length. All three measurements are length measurements in millimeters.

What does AX profile mean?

AX is a timing classic V-belt profile. The belt has raw-edge sides and a timing underside.
