New Synchromesh Cable Drives from Stock Drive Products

This patented miniature cable, identified as the A 6J 9- and A 6J 9M Series, consists of a straight center section, encased in nylon and a helically-wound outer length encased in polyurethane. Both cable strands consist of braided stainless steel cores. The cable is stocked in both inch and metric in the following pitches: .120", .150", .200" and .250" (3.048 mm, 3.81 mm, 5.08 mm, and 6.35 mm). The cable O.D. ranges from .059" to .134" (1.5 mm to 3.4 mm) and has minimum tensile loads ranging from 40 lbf to 200 lbf (18 kg to 90 kg). Pitch accuracy of the drive is ±.002" (±0.05 mm) and cumulative pitch error is ±.16" (± 4.06 mm) max. over 100 pitches. The flexing cycle life of the drive is 106 minimum where the pulley pitch radius is R = 13.9 x (straight center section diameter d2) and the static tension is T s = .05 x TB (Min. Tensile Load). The temperature range recommended is -22°F to +176°F (-30°C to + 80°C).
