1. The table values are typically larger than necessary to cover the broad RPM range.
2. For drives where hub loads are critical and high speed drives or other drives with special circumstances, the table values (deflection force, installation tension) should be calculated.
3. Consult the Web site for detailed information on using the frequency-based tension gauges.
4. Veyance Technologies offers three different tension gauges for properly tensioning Eagle NRG, Hawk Pd or Blackhawk Pd belts. See your Goodyear Engineered Products sales representative
or your local PTP industrial distributor for more information on the tension gauges listed on this page.
