Model 3465 - Heavy Duty Upper Beater Drive Spreaders Brochure

The banded belt drive with Q.D. sheaves was developed for drives subjected to shock loads, pulsating loads, or extreme vibrations where single belts could flip over on the pulleys. A high-strength tie band permanently joins the three belts to provide lateral rigidity. Keeping the belts running in a straight line in the pulley grooves under extreme shock loads produced by the beaters. The Q.D. bushings keep the pulleys tight and in line under the most extreme conditions. No need to run around looking for matching belts. With the banded design, they are always matched for good fit, less maintenance, long life, and quiet while operating. This design eliminates the need for a slip clutch.
