<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 11.25pt; margin-left: 0cm; margin-right: 0cm; margin-top: 3.75pt; vertical-align: baseline;">

drive will be using multiple single v-belts in order to transmit power. In such
a drive, the application has been calculated to split the load over several
V-Belts to guarantee efficient distribution of the power.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 11.25pt; margin-left: 0cm; margin-right: 0cm; margin-top: 3.75pt; vertical-align: baseline;">

V-belts have, not only the same specifications, but also the same length and so
the tension being applied to all single v belt linearly. Obviously the v-belts
with shorter length would carry the main load since the tension would be
impacted while the other V Belts would have lower tension level.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 11.25pt; margin-left: 0cm; margin-right: 0cm; margin-top: 3.75pt; vertical-align: baseline;">

critical that all V-belts in the drive have exactly the same length so the load
is being transmitted equally to all v belt.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

exhibiting and this year’s Drives & Controls exhibition at Birmingham NEC
12<sup>th</sup>-14<sup>th</sup> April. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
This is the first exhibition Drive Parts
Direct Ltd has taken part in, but as Drives & Controls has established
itself as the leading UK event for Power Transmission and automation I felt is
an ideal event for us to showcase our exciting products. We will be joining
350+ of the leading suppliers of mechanical power transmission products,
motors, robotics and pneumatics, exhibiting a range of Steigentech belt and
matting products. Alongside me “on duty” throughout the exhibition will be the
Vice President of Steigentech Mr Thomas Vidal, and my wife Teresa – the real boss!! <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
We would be delighted to see you and discuss the Steigentech
products and how we can be of service, <span style="background: white; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";">we are different from current premium manufacturers;<span class="apple-converted-space"> we like to get to know our customers and deal
in a </span>more personal and traditional way with the people we work with. F</span>or
any one unsure about our products and services we offer this is an idea
opportunity to come and see for themselves the value for money, quality and
range of products we are able to offer. If you can make it our booth number is
D642 and a warm welcome awaits you – hopefully someone will come along for a
chat otherwise it will be a lonely 3 days.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
It’s been an exciting first year for me, and as the months
keep on coming and flying past I am confident that Drive Parts Direct Ltd and
our partners will continue to offer a product range that gives true value for
money, stock availability and knowledgeable friendly staff who understand what
our customers need and expect. I and the team here at Drive Parts Direct thank
all our existing customers for your support it’s been a pleasure getting to

<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">One year ago I moved into Unit 2 farthing Road – an older
industrial unit with a small office with a warehouse that needed some attention
– but it was big enough to start. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">Launching a new company along with a brand that is new to Europe
was exciting, slightly daunting and I must say somewhat scary. After 23+ years
of being an employee and loving every minute of it, I was now alone and eager
to get started and bring Drive Parts Direct Ltd to life.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">Jan through to March was taken up getting myself and the
company ready for launch, trying to work out warehouse space requirements for
the stock coming in, setting up a location system and bring our web site and
portal to life and ready for the big day!! Those months, like the rest of this year
just flew by. In March the first Steigentech belt and matting stock arrived
along with the Diamond Sapphire chain stock and at last I could begin trading
in earnest. I am pleased to say the products we sell and the service we give
have been well received and our customer base continues to grow.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">I would like to thank all of you for your trust in Drive
Parts Direct and our products. While saying thank you, at this point I must also
thank my wife for becoming my unpaid warehouse person on a part time/weekend
basis – the truth is she just wanted to spend some time with me </span><span style="font-family: Wingdings; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%; mso-ascii-font-family: "Trebuchet MS"; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt; mso-char-type: symbol; mso-hansi-font-family: "Trebuchet MS"; mso-symbol-font-family: Wingdings;">J</span><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;"> Well that’s my take on the
situation!! <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">To my delight as this first year of trading draws to an end
we have been able to expand our warehouse which will allow us to hold more core
product stock -it’s already on order!! I am already looking ahead and planning
to add more products to our existing ranges, as we continue our growth plan.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">You may have already seen that we have decided to exhibit at
the Drives & Controls show April 12th-14<sup>th</sup> – the UK’s leading
event for Power Transmission products, here we will exhibiting Steigentech
product’s along with other products from our range. We would love to meet you
if you’re going to the show – along with me the vice president of the Steigentech
group will also be on hand to discuss our products and services and how we can
help your business grow. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">I look back on this year with some degree of pride and an
overwhelming feeling of excitement for 2016, along with the relief of “I’ve
made it through the first year and were still here”! New staff will mean that I
will be able to “leave my baby” and travel to meet customers both new, old and
potential, and spread the word about the quality value for money we have to
offer. And my wife will be able to get back to the housework :) <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;">It’s been a good first year and I have loved every minute of
it, I thank you all once again for your business, support and trust, and for
those of you who are reading this and haven’t made the change yet, all I can
ask is why not give us a try, you won’t be disappointed.</span><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt; mso-fareast-language: EN-GB; mso-no-proof: yes;"> <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span class="apple-style-span"><span style="font-family: "Calibri Light",sans-serif;">This
belt category is basically a flat belt with a corrugated driving surface;
ridges running longitudinally around the inside of the belt. The groove-to-groove
pitch distance, groove angles, groove depth of these poly V belts comply with
international standards. The common profiles are H, J, K, L, and M, being relatively
thin, with a well-supported tensile member, these belts perform better than
V-belts on drives with small diameter pulleys. They are particularly suited to
serpentine pulley configurations and can drive flat pulleys from the backside
of the belt as well which is important in serpentine drives. The low mass and
high flexibility of Poly v/ribbed belts allow them to tolerate small diameter
pulleys, reverse bending, high drive speed, and high speed ratios. Poly V/ribbed
belts do not rely as much on the wedging action (as a v-belt) to transmit
torque, and therefore tensions tend to run higher<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span class="apple-style-span"><span style="font-family: "Calibri Light",sans-serif;">Typical
Applications <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span class="apple-style-span"><span style="font-family: "Calibri Light",sans-serif;">The
“H” profile is used primarily in the white goods appliance sector as the drive
belt for washing machines and tumble dryers. They are also found in many small
electric hand tools and equipment like belt sanders and kitchen blenders. The
“K” profile has been used almost exclusively in the automotive market as the
prime driver for front-end accessory drives (FEAD). One belt, connected to the vehicle
crankshaft will drive the alternator, water pump, power steering pump, A/C
compressor, and other auxiliary equipment, such as air pumps or alternator/and
the modern starter hybrids. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span class="apple-style-span"><span style="font-family: "Calibri Light",sans-serif;">The
“J”, “L”, and “M” belt profiles can be used on many industrial drives and can
in some cases replace the Classical or Wedge belts.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

Another eventful few weeks in the short life of Drive Parts
Direct Ltd has seen us put in extra warehouse racking, a floor and new lighting
as we increase our total storage area. It’s great to be out “of the dark” and “into
the light” - our old lighting was somewhat tired and did need some attention,
to say the least. Our new system has movement detectors and the lights come on
as you approach the area/row you need to pick from, not only a lot, lot, better
than the old lighting but also a lot more energy efficient. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I am delighted to report that this increase in warehouse space
(earlier than originally planned) came about due to our need to be able to hold
more stock of the Steigentech belting & matting product as it is proves to
be a quality, value product range, and sales to the UK market continue to grow.
As well as our extra space for increased core product we have now added the
Steigentech PK section Poly V belts into our range – this like our J section
poly V belts & metric and imperial timing belts are stocked in sleeve form
that can be cut to your required widths. We have also created space to add extra
sizes of the popular matting and flooring products and additional ranges will
be added in the coming weeks and months.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
We still have a lot of work to do in relocating some product
and re organising the warehouse but I am delighted with the progress made so
far and now the main “building” work has been completed I can “see the light at
the end of the tunnel” and once everything is complete we will have a warehouse
to be proud off.<o:p></o:p></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
For those of you who have purchased our products I hope you
are experiencing the quality and value for money, and enjoyed the service we
have given, I thank you for your custom and support and we look forward to
being of service to you again in the future.<o:p></o:p></div>

What is he going on about now, I hear you say after all he’s
only selling drive belts….. Well many years ago when I was starting out in this
trade (yes I do have a good memory) I learnt not to follow the crowd, look at
every avenue and where ever possible always strive to be better than the rest. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Sometimes in our fast paced world it’s too easy to “follow
the crowd” and replace equipment, spare parts and indeed service with the “one
we used before”, this no doubt will work, but is it really what is needed and
should we always follow the crowd?<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Here at Drive Parts Direct our philosophy when it comes to
our product offering is to give our customers the range, the quality, the price
and importantly the service with an offering of product that is excellent in performance,
gets the job done and doesn’t come with unnecessary costs.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I know with Steigentech we have partnered with a family
owned and run company with the same beliefs as mine, simply to provide a
product and service that offers true value and to have a desire to be different
and stand out from the crowd. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Not many manufacturers offer the range of rubber and plastic
products that Steigentech can, a range that covers - V belts, Variable Speed
Belts, Double Sided V Belts, Light Duty & Dry Fractional V belts, Banded
belts, Moulded ribbed Belts, Poly urethane endless timing belts, metric and
imperial rubber trimming belts, Polyurethane ribbed belts. Extruded open end
belting, Thermoweldable belting. Along with a matting range covers Industrial
rubber sheets, rubber floor mats, flooring rolls, drainage mats, speciality
rubber rolls, interlocking mats and light weight conveying belts.<o:p></o:p></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
Remember when your belt fails, or you need a new mat, think
about what you actually need and expect in performance and cost before
replacing with the same brand Think Value, Think Quality, Think Steigentech
& Drive Parts Direct.<o:p></o:p></div>

<br />
<div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt; text-align: center;">
<o:p><span style="font-family: Calibri;"> </span></o:p></div>
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">One of the main advantages of a chain drive is its ability
to perform well under varying conditions. Despite this ability there are a
number of rules for good design practice which if considered early in the
design process will ensure the correct chain is selected and maxim results are
achieved.<o:p></o:p></span><br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Minimum Ultimate
Tensile Strength</b>: this is the static load required to break the chain. Load
or tension applied to the chain in service should never exceed 1/6<sup><span style="font-size: x-small;">th</span></sup>
of the chains Ultimate Tensile Strength. A roller chain should NEVER be loaded
above 50% of its MUTS for even 1 cycle as doing so will permanently damage the
chain.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Allowable Working
Load</b>: Roller chain with equal tensile strengths can have very different working
load capacities, there is no constant relationship between a roller chains
working capacity and its ultimate tensile strength. Certain chain manufacturers
with a higher tensile strength could have a lower working load capacity.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Selecting Chain Sizes</b>:
There could be several suitable chains for any particular application, Loads,
Speeds, Environment, Required service life; Costs will determine the final
selection. Generally the lower cost drive will be powered by a single strand
chain of the smallest pitch available to take the load required. The speed and
number of teeth on the drive sprocket will also effect the selection of the
chain size that is required.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">As a general rule the smaller the pitch of chain the higher
the operating speeds.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: #333333; font-size: 10pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Roller chain is manufactured from highly engineered components and
proper maintenance is required for users to get the maxim efficiency from the
chain. You should always make regular visual inspections and carry out preventative
maintenance as and when required. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 13.5pt; margin-bottom: 7.5pt;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-size: 10pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Proper lubrication of a chain drive is very important and will help to
give the best performance. If the chain is not properly lubricated its life
will be decreased, lack of lubrication is one of the main causes of premature
chain wear and failure.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 13.5pt; margin-bottom: 7.5pt;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-size: 10pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Lubrication using the correctly selected/recommended lubricant is vital
to minimise the wear of the chain components which have direct
metal to metal contact, wear will result due to friction if not lubricated.</span></span><span style="color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; line-height: 13.5pt;">Chain elongation can also be caused by wear between the chain pin and bush
during its movement, as well as helping to prevent elongation, good lubrication
cools down the chain when running at high speed and helps reduce noise while
running.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10.5pt;">V-belts transmit power by their grip on the pulley and the
belt tension, </span><span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; color: #333333; font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10.5pt;">the belt transmits power by friction contact
between the belt and the driving and driven pulley </span><span style="font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10.5pt;">It is therefore essential that
correct tension is maintained throughout the life of the belt.</span></div>
