So even though the cogged belt doesn't have as much surface area and obviously no teeth to engage on the pulley it works better than two A belts?
BTW, is this a picture of the gear for a cogged belt?
Actually, didn't know there was a recommended belt size. Just figured more contact area was better. Also, I was up at Sid's seminar and the belkts looked wider than A on the rebuild we did. But, your logic is understandable. Thanks
I'm rebuilding a 25 LG and have a 1hp motor with a 7/8" shaft. I'd like to use a double pulley with the widest possible belts, 3" pitch diameter. So far, all I've found is one for an "A" belt. Does anyone have a lead on a wider sheave?
