The Alligator
®
V-Belt Fastening System is
designed to grip the ends of a v-belt without
interfering with the sheaves (pulleys) that
the belt passes around.
Staples or nails are driven through the
fastener and belt and folded over. They
are then hammered tight against the
bottom plate of the fastener clinching the
belt between the fastener plates. There is
nothing that protrudes beyond the sides
of the belt that would interfere with the
sheaves.
