Transverse Cylinder Mount Bracket

If you need to increase the width of any of our 24 Tooth pullies, here is the solution! This pulley extension mates with existing pulley halves am-3401, am-3402, and am-3403. This pulley extension can be used in a variety of settings, such as a wider conveyor belt, multiple belt output, and much more by stacking multiple extenders back-to-back between our standard pulley halves. 

Specifications:

• Outside Diameter: 1.459" (at outer tooth edge)
• Pitch Diameter: 1.504"
• Width: 9mm
• Material: Black Polycarbonate
• Fits belt types: 5mm pitch HTD timing belt, 9mm wide
• Weight: 0.014 pounds

You asked, we listened! These 3" diameter HD (heavy-duty) solid-core Compliant Wheels are intended for manipulating objects where you need a little 'give' in your intake system. These wheels deform out of the way to allow rigid objects to be manipulated easily. This makes for high-performance intakes and internal conveyors. These wheels do not require the use of expensive hubs to be driven, thanks to their integrated high strength polycarbonate hubs - which are made from the same mold that creates our Hex Molded Spacers.

Different durometer ratings give each wheel unique characteristics. Green compliant wheels (35A durometer) are the softest and most compliant around objects, while maroon (45A) blue (50A) and black (60A) wheels are increasingly firm.

Specifications

• Bore: 0.375 in. Hex, 0.5 in. Hex, 5 mm Hex
• Color: Green, Black, Blue, Black

• Durometer: 35A (Green), 40A (Orange), 50A (Blue), 60A (Black)

Compliant wheels are not intended for moving robots, but moving objects. Compliant wheels give way to allow rigid objects to be manipulated easily. A line of multiple wheels on a driven hex axle creates a very effective roller that ignores variations in the objects being driven. This makes for high-performance intakes and internal conveyors.

Different durometer ratings give each wheel unique characteristics. Green wheels (35A durometer) are the softest and most compliant around objects, while orange (40A), maroon (45A), blue (50A), and black (60A) wheels are increasingly firm. The increased firmness also allows the latter wheels to carry a higher RPM rating. Check out the downloads tab for a chart showing wheels and their maximum RPM. 

Please note maroon wheels are only intended for use in FTC. If more powerful motors are used to drive it the spokes may fail.

This is a steel sheet metal bracket designed to mount the phd, Inc. OCG cylinders (am-3303, am-3304, am-3305). It acts as a pivot mount for the front part of the cylinder.

Specifications:

• Flange diameter: 1.654"
• Outside Diameter: 1.459"
• Pitch Diameter: 1.504"
• Width: 0.276"
• Bore: 0.50" Hex
• Material: Black Polycarbonate
• Fits belt types: 5mm pitch HTD timing belt, 9mm wide
• Weight: 0.0025 Pounds

This is the "500EX Hex Hub" the bore is a 1/2" Hex Hole. It is a slightly different version of the 500 Hex Hub. It is manufactured differently, as it is extruded. Also, there is a 1.124" diameter boss on each side of the hub flange, providing a location for 1.125" bore flat sprockets. Are you having a hard time keeping your sprocket concentric with your hub? This hub is the trick.

This is the hub featured in the 2014 and 2015 Kit of Parts Drive Chassis and fits all AndyMark wheels. 

Specifications:

• Material: 6063 Aluminum
• Bore: 1/2" Hex
• Bolt Pattern: 0.204" diameter holes, evenly spaced on a 1.875" diameter bolt circle
• Outside diameter: 2.25"
• Weight: .088

This is a plastic air tank accumulator holding 574 ml, manufactured by Clippard.

This black plastic tank has been improved over the last white plastic design from Clippard. Each end now has molded in plastic push-in fittings. These eliminate the need to have metal fittings to be screwed in to the tank, and omits the uncertainty of over-tightening a fitting into the tank.

Specifications:

• Manufacturer: Clippard
• Weight: 0.64 lbs
• Capacity: 574 ml (35 cu. inch)
• Ports: Two 1/4" od tube push-in fittings
• Maximum pressure: 125 psig
• Temperature rating: 35 to 100 F
• Length: 12.25"
• Diameter: 2.5" (@ main tank), 2.75" max

A mounting bracket is available to order (am-2008), but is not included when ordering just this item.

Note: If you have received a faulty air tank (damaged push to connect fittings) please contact Scott Lamb of Clippard Technical Sales at (513)-521-4445 (ext 1213).

Each hub now has a "flower" pattern that fits and keys into our 42T 5 mm HTD Pulley, which means you are no longer constrained to our legacy 500EX Hex Hub for compatibility with this pulley. Every hub still maintains a closed-profile hole for maximum strength. Every shaft hub has been designed with bearing bosses on both sides that have been sized appropriately for the mating bearings that would pair with the bore through the hub, which means you can run each hub right against a bearing with no need for extra spacers. All of these hubs are also made from 7075-T6 aluminum, which is much stronger than the previously used 6061-T6, 6005, and 6105 alloys from our older designs. Where possible, the shoulder on shaft hubs was reduced to 7/8" in diameter for an easier fit with our molded plastic wheels, while still maintaining a precise 1.125" diameter boss for locating in wheels, sprockets, gears, and more. 

The holes are evenly spaced on a 1.875 in. circle and 0.201 inches in diameter. That's a perfect size for #10 bolts!

The AndyMark Climber in a Box is a robust, lightweight, configurable and affordable solution for climbing challenges historically present in FRC end game periods. The design of Climber in a Box has been inspired by many team designs along the way including 254 and 2056. The final prototype for this climber was developed in partnership with FRC Team 3940 CyberTooth for the 2020/2021 Infinite Recharge season. This mechanism has been battle tested with hundreds of climbs on a full weight FRC Robot without failures, both in development and real match play. Available in single and two stage configurations, this product should help teams of all levels elevate their team's performance at competitions.

This product uses a "spring out, winch back" powertrain strategy, using off-the-shelf 3.5lb constant force springs to raise the included Hook Kit, and 3mm Dyneema Rope to retract it with the included Winch Kit. Simply unspool the included rope using a planetary gearbox to raise the hook(s), drive the robot up to the bar, and winch it back to elevate your robot. The AndyMark Climber in a Box does not include a motor or gearbox, but is compatible with many off-the-shelf planetary gearboxes on the market that have a 2" bolt circle mounting pattern and support a 2" long 1/2" hex output shaft, including the highly durable blue Sport Gearboxes.

The bearing kits within this product are designed to go from 2" square 1/16" wall aluminum tubing, down to a 1" square 1/16" wall tube, with a 1.5" square 1/16" wall tube in between for the 2 stage flavor of this product. A combination of durable 608 bearings and custom molded plastic components provide the bearing surfaces for a free-flowing telescoping tube mechanism with no 3D printed parts. Each stage has a maximum travel of 24.5."

The AndyMark Climber in a Box is an unassembled kit of everything you need (besides a gearmotor) that is designed to not require any precision machining in order to make your FRC robot climb. The plates included within the Hook Kit, Bearing Kits and Winch Kit are all designed to be assembled and used as drill guides for match drilling their mounting locations onto the aluminum tubes. Each tube is pre-cut to a 30" length so no cutting of the tubes is required to achieve maximum travel.
