This banded version of “The Energy Saver” combines the longer life and superior performance of the Gold-Ribbon Cog-Belt with the stability of a banded belt. It provides excellent service life in harsh environments and high shock load conditions. The unique construction combines the superior flexing of precision molded cogs with the tenacious gripping power of raw edge sidewalls. Gold-Ribbon Cog-Band is designed to achieve longer belt life, higher efficiency and higher horsepower ratings. It’s an ideal choice for applications where increased horsepower or speed is required. The reinforced band across the top of two or more individual v-belts greatly enhances stability by preventing the belt from turning over or jumping off the drive.
It’s another first for Zero-Max—a unique Gas Nitriding option to protect Overhung Load Adaptor (OHLA) shafts while enhancing overall system performance.
Because OHLAs are most often used in harsh outdoor environments including exposure to heat, rain, humidity, salt water, dirt and debris, protecting the OHLA shaft can be an important consideration. The new Gas Nitriding (Gaseous Nitrocarburizing) option for OHLA shafts provides superior corrosion resistance, surface hardness to boost strength and durability, and adds lubricity to the shaft, which benefits shaft seal life by reducing friction and wear.
