All of the Maska products meet these standards and some offer higher specifications; i.e. like our QD bushings series in ductile iron.

Maska - Interchangeability
Maska meets MPTA standards Maskas QD sheaves and bushings are interchangeable with QD products made by all other manufacturer members of the MPTA. All fixed bore sheaves from Maska have a reference number stamped on parts or printed on boxes to match manufacturer nomenclature
MASKA 2009-M1
Easy and economical installation. No lubrication required. Clean & low maintenance. Elasticity of belts helps shock load dampening. Quiet, smooth operation. Long life expectancy when well designed. Good mechanical efficiency.
MASKA 2009-M1
Ability to slip upon overload, resulting in a fail-safe drive. Generally 5% slippage. A belt drive system should never be lubricated as it depends on friction to transmit power, in contrast with chain or gear systems.
MASKA 2009-M1
The minimum safety factor should be based on industry standards. Environment and working conditions will affect the safety factor.

2 ways to mount bushings and pulleys on shaft: standard and reverse. This allows sheaves to be mounted from the most convenient side to reduce overhang load.
STANDARD REVERSE
MASKA 2009-M1
The assembly of TL and ST bushings will resist heavy impacts with sprockets or 300% HTD drives because of their dual locking device on shaft and hub QD bushing V-Belt Drives offer the necessary torque resistance when properly designed and are a preferred option because of their lower cost and easy installation & removal.

Sheaves
Die Cast variable tolerances depending on manufacturers. Low wear resistance and some manufacturers leave the burr made by the parting line in the groove reducing belt life Pressed Steel poor tolerances, high wobbling and can only transmit low H.P.

All of Maska adjustable pulleys are made of cast iron offering the best quality. Close tolerances of the threads on hubs are controlled for run-out In double groove series, when flanges are backed off an equal number of turns, the gap is identical on both sides making both belts pull equally.

Large selection of cross-sections available. Coupled with other identical cross-sections, these belts can transmit up to hundreds of hp units.
MASKA 2009-M1
2. Sheaves & Maska characteristics Narrow V-belt Recommended for drive systems that require compact design, with higher speed and increased horsepower. Drive system can be designed with shorter centers and smaller sheaves. Overall drive dimensions can be reduced by as much as 40%. 3V covers A&B, 5V covers B&C and 8V covers D&E cross-sections.
MASKA 2009-M1
Belt flexibility increased and a larger surface contact for heat dissipation. Better torque capacity even in high-speed operations. Less slippage.
MASKA 2009-M1
2. Sheaves & Maska characteristics Banded V-belt Recommended for applications with verticallymounted shafts or extended center-to-center distances.
Assures lateral rigidity and guides the belts into the pulley walls in a straight line. Designed for heavy-duty drives where shock loading is a problem and where multiple matched single belts tend to roll over or jump off the groove.

For efficient operations, the minimum belt wrap, or arc of contact, of the smallest pulley should be 120 degrees. The maximum arc of contact that can be obtained is 180 degrees. For larger ratios, an idler pulley may be necessary.

Clean all surfaces (grooves, taper hub, shafts, etc.) Verify alignment Proper Belt tension Check tension after 48 hours

4. Drive optimization tips Belt tensioning Too much tension can cause excessive wear on belts & bearings.
Too little tension allows slippage, loss of power & additional wear.
MASKA 2009-M1
4. Drive Optimization Tips Checking Sheave Grooves for wear Worn grooves cause one or more belts to ride lower than the others, resulting in premature wear of belts & reduced performance levels (see Figure below) If wear is premature, could be caused by misalignment. Signs of wear:
One or more belts are slack while others are tight? Bottom of the groove is shiny? Belts wear out quickly?
MASKA 2009-M1
4. Drive Optimization Tips Checking Sheave Grooves for wear How to check for wear quickly?
Maska sheave & belt gage is an inexpensive tool that can be inserted in the groove until the rim touches the flange. If more than 1/32" wear, replace the sheave (see Figure below). The cost of replacing the part is soon offset by the number of belts that will be quickly ruined by rounded sidewalls. Resulting belt problems touching bottom and slipping, reduced wedging action & less gripping power.

For hazardous environments, additional protection is recommended such as grounding the entire system to ensure against accidental static spark discharges Cogged belts at higher temperature or linked belts between 140 & 180 for smaller drives.
