The common connecting bar distributes tension uniformly across the full belt width. Teeth are shaped to divide (not sever) the longitudinal carcass fibers, producing a vise-like hold on rubber, PVC, fabric, and light urethane belts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInstallation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Only a hammer and the included gauge pin are required.
