 Overview

The COF4X-2000 is a fourth generation product that was originally developed in conjunction with automotive OEMs and Belt Manufacturers to characterize accessory drive belts for coefficient of friction. The latest generation boasts a smaller footprint and increased versatility with regards to lengths of belt and available amount of force.  The stand is capable of testing both the frontside (ribbed) and backside (flat) of accessory belts under dynamic conditions. Other stands test small sections of belts in a static state.

The COF4X-2000 is universally configurable for:
  • Frontside or Backside Tests
  • Wet or Dry Tests
  • Belt lengths of 800 - 3000mm
  • Belt widths of 3K -  8K
