Mechanical fastening system for wide Timing belts
(a new lacing technology)
The ERO Joint® WT mechanical fastening system is specific to wide belts: the fastening pins are located on the back of the belt, leaving the possibility of machining the teeth. Plastic pins can also be used.
The ERO Joint® mechanical joint is available in widths from 100mm to 1800mm.
ERO Joint® WT is compatible with all types of coating (Supergrip, Linatex, PU, Sylomer, etc.) and all types of guiding.
| ERO Joint® WT | ERO Joint® HP | ERO Joint® (standard) | |
|---|---|---|---|
| WT - Wide Timing | HP = Hinge Pin | Like the Pin Joint/Lock system | |
| Pitch | WT10 - WH | T10 - AT10 - H - T20 - AT20 - 8M - 14M | T10 - AT10 - 8M - 14M |
| Width | 150mm to 1828mm | 10 mm to 450mm | 16mm to 100mm |
| Permissible tensile force | 400N for 150mm width (customer data) | Like welded belts (1170N/25mm T10) (1871N / 25mm AT10) | Very low (300N / 25mm T10) (300N / 25mm AT10) |
| Principle | 3 flat pins | 1 hinge pin | 8 to 10 pins |
