    Need help identifying this belt

    I need help identifying a belt. It came from a linear stage which I believe is from a silicon wafer positioning machine. The belt is .130" pitch, .290 wide, open ended. It's some type of plastic and has two steel cables molded into the edges with 'rungs' connecting them. It runs on what appear to be roller chain sprockets. I'm looking for a source for replacement belting, or .130 pitch chain.

    Sounds like a Posi-Drive chain. http://www.sdp-si.com/D790/PDF/D790C02192.pdf
    If it's not nailed down, it's mine.
    If I can pry it loose, it's not nailed down.

    Well that's the closest thing I've seen, but still not the same. The posi-drive has the wrong pitch and width unless there are other sizes that are not listed on SDP site. I'm still looking for something before I switch it over to XL or MXL belts and pulleys.

    ..try http://www.pic-design.com <<<< They should have it.

    belts and pulleys - no slip belt, your pitch is in there, stainless steel braided wire reinforced, no picture, you may be able to download a catalog.

    I've ordered the No-slip belts from PIC-Design, they appear to be a perfect match for the ones I need to replace. I've also found that WM Berg has the same style belt, they call it Flex-E-Gear positive drive chain.

    Thanks again.
