 Because they are still the most practical, economical, and dependable belts for most industrial drives, innovations have failed to displace the need for classical section belts. Bando's constant improvements in materials, design, and manufacturing methods help Power King® keep pace with industry's ever increasing demands for long, trouble-free belt service
|
| 1. Cover-The bias cut, rubber impregnated fabric cover is woven for super flexibility and friction resistance. To protect the belt's inner components, the tough, long wearing cover is fully oil and heat resistant. |
|
3. Tensile Cords-Ultra high strength polyester cords assure fatigue resistance and length stability. Each cord is chemically treated to bond to the insulation and compression sections, welding all components together for long service life. |
| 2. Insulation Section-This section is designed to protect and support the tensile cords. The insulation section also acts as an adhesion layer that, when cured, fuses the tensile cords to the compression section so the belt components can't separate. |
4. Compression Section-The compression section is specially compounded for flexibility to reduce heat build up while bending around sheaves. This design gives a cooler running, longer lasting belt. The compression section provides firm support to the tensile cords, so an equal load is transferred to all tensile members for uniform load carrying capability. |

| Power Ace®, a “narrow” profile belt that transfers loads very efficiently and therefore enjoys higher horsepower ratings than classical section belts, should be considered for any new drive system. Power Ace’s efficient design, executed with premium quality materials and advanced manufacturing techniques, can transmit up to 3 times the horsepower of classical section belts in the same space or the same horsepower in 1/2 to 2/3 the space. You save belt and sheave weight, space, and cost making Power Ace a great value. |
| 1. Cover-Cut on a special bias angle, the rubber impregnated fabric cover permits the belt to bend easily around sheaves, reducing stress and the resulting heat build up that shortens belt life. The belt's inner components are protected against dirt, oil, and heat by the long wearing cover. |
 |
2. Insulation Section-This section provides cord support and protection, while bonding the tensile cords to the upper and lower components for longest possible belt life. |
| 3. Tensile Cords-Extra strong polyester tensile cords are treated for fatigue and stretch resistance. These rugged cords are the secret to the belts, exceptional length stability and drive uniformity. |

Bando Power King® Cog and Power Ace® Cog |
| These high horsepower energy savers feature a molded cog design. When the proven reliability, economy, and efficiency of conventional V-belts are combined with an innovative molded cog design, belt users reap important benefits! |
| 1. The oil and heat resistant top cover protects the belt from damage while contributing to the belt's dimensional stability. The cover stock is bias cut to provide lateral stability while allowing axial flexibility. |
 |
3. Precision molded cogs provide for optimum flexibility with a minimum of heat build-up. Flexing generates heat, heat will shorten belt life- the two (2) factors that increase replacement costs and downtime. |
| 2. The fiber loaded compression section provides the gripping action and high coefficient of friction of a conventional cut-edge construction while at the same time, allowing an initial start-up clutching action to eliminate power spikes and excessive bearing loading. |
4. Tension member stability is assured through the use of the newly formulated fiber loaded BANPRENE® cushion stock that maintains cord "lay" integrity and uniform distribution of load transmission. |

Bando Duraflex® VC (Cogged) and DC (Double Cog) |
| Duraflex® VC and DC are the most precise V-belts available. Because of their superior dimensional stability, Duraflex® VC and DC have half the center-to-center distance wobble of conventional belts. This stability and exceptionally high coefficient of friction add up to minimal slippage. The polyurethane construction eliminates the "black dust" problem common to conventional FHP belts. |
| 1. Polyurethane Body- Is more stable, flexible, and the non-conductive compound is highly resistant to lubricants with a maximum volume increase of less than 5% (based on 72 hours in a test oil bath of ASTM #3). |
 |
3. Compression Section-Cogged design provides maximum flexibility without sacrificing either strength or performance. Double cog construction allows you to scale down pulley size requirements. Cogs allow efficient operation in pulleys as small as 0.6" OD, with virtually no slippage or heat build-up. |
| 2. Tensile Cords-Exclusive Bando TETRON® cords are positioned with exact spacing to insure tensile strength, dimensional stability and no-wobble in high speed shock load applications. |

Bando Power King® Combo and Power Ace® Combo |
| When shock loads, pulsation, or misalignment cause belts to whip, flip over, or jump off the sheaves, you need the powerful combination of benefits you get with Power King® Combo and Power Ace® Combo. We start by building individual premium quality belts, and join them with a tough tie band that, when cured, welds the belt together permanently. This tie band assures lateral rigidity, and guides the belts into the sheave grooves in a straight line - so the belts can't flip over or jump off, even under severe shock loads. Combos are ideal on vertical shaft drives. And, they are a low cost, low maintenance alternative to gear and chain on many applications. |
| 1. Tie Band- The tie band, reinforced with high strength transverse tensile cords, forms a permanent link between individual belts. The band is fully oil and heat resistant to perform well under the most severe conditions. |
|
4. Tensile Cords-High strength polyester tensile cords are specially treated for length stability and fatigue resistance. These tough cords stand up to repeated shock loads without stretching. |
| 2. Cover-The flexible, bias cut, rubber impregnated fabric cover is oil, heat, and ozone resistant to protect the belt's inner components for maximum service life. |
3. Insulation Section-This section is compounded to bond the tensile cords together chemically to prevent separation of belt components. |
5. Compression Section-The compression section balances firmness with flexibility. Firm, uniform support of the tensile cords means each cord carries an equal load. Under-cord flexibility reduces heat build up for maximum performance over time. |

| Variable speed drives demand a unique combination of belt features. Because these belts are wide in proportion to their thickness, they must have extreme crosswise rigidity. Without it, the belt will dish in, throw the tensile cords out of line, and affect speed control. Variable speed belts also require lengthwise flexibility to bend around small sheaves without excess strain that will shorten belt life. Bando's cog design solves these potential problems by providing excellent flexibility, without sacrificing the crosswise rigidity required to properly position the tensile cords. The result is precise speed control, a wide range of speed ratios, and long, dependable service. |
| 1. Top Fabric-Flexible fabric provides excellent oil and heat resistance. |
|
4. Compression Section-Fiber reinforcement in this section is transversely aligned to provide maximum crosswise rigidity for tensile cord support, while allowing for extreme flexibility. |
| 2. Insulation Section-This section protects the high strength tensile cords and houses chemical bonding agents that, activated by heat, fuse the cords together to prevent separation. |
3. Tensile Cords-Tough polyester cords won't fatigue-even with repeated shock loads. Cords are specially treated to resist stretch and carry high horsepower requirements. |
5.
Cog-The cog design provides flexibility to reduce heat build up, minimize cracking, give wide speed ranges, and maximize belt life. |

| In addition to belts manufactured to RMA (Rubber Manufacturers Association) standards, Bando produces belts to European standard DIN 7753 and ISO4184. These standards are based on the metric system of units and have different cross section designations. The Narrow "Wedge" profile allows for higher speed ratios, shorter center distances and overall more compact drives. They are direct replacements for belts on imported machinery and on domestic equipment for export. |
| 1. Arched Top - Under drive tension the top of an ordinary belt “dishes” and the resulting depression distorts the tension member causing uneven cord loading which shortens belt life. The arched top flattens out under load to provide proper positioning for the tension members. |
 |
3. Tension Members Manufactured of high density polyester treated for fatigue and stretch resistance. |
| 2. Oil and Heat Resistant Bias Cut Envelope Protects the belt’s inner components against dirt, oil and heat. The bias cut BANPRENE® impregnated fabric provides lateral stability while permitting axial flexibility for operating around small pulley diameters. |
4. BANPRENE® Compression Section Maintains tension member cross section uniformity while remaining flexible enough to reduce heat build up. The BANPRENE® under-cord transfers the load from the sheave to the tension member. |

| Serpentine drives, with one or more reverse bends that require power to be transmitted from both sides of the belt, can put extra stress on belt components. Bando Double V® "dual direction" flexibility assures long life - as much as 40% more than traditional Double V-belts - on such tough applications as agricultural and textile machinery. Concave side walls for improved pulley groove contact and drive efficiency. |
| 1. Cover-Bias cut cover protects against oil, heat, ozone, dirt, and damaging elements. |
 |
3. Compression Section-These upper and lower sections are compounded for extra flexibility to allow the belt to bend easily in both directions. Designed for low heat build up to extend belt life. |
| 2. Tensile Cords -High strength polyester tensile cords provide superior length stability and fatigue resistance. Cords are bonded together chemically by the surrounding insulation section to prevent separation and assure long belt life. |
