Exercise

The most popular piece of exercise equipment in any gym is the treadmill. If you walk into a busy gym there is usually a long row of treadmills and a waitlist to use them. Any machine that gets that many hours of continuous foot pounding and miles of use needs a good motor. More importantly, it needs a strong, straight and efficient belt drive that is capable of handling the load and the speed.

BRECOflex timing belts have positive, synchronous drive with constant length and no post-elongation. They maintain their tension superbly and offer high power with low running noise. Flat belts and V-belts are also used in treadmills but the most efficient and reliable option is the toothed timing belt. Strong bifilar stainless steel tension members in a truly endless timing belt with a solid self-tracking guide is an ideal option for treadmills.
