Figure1: A v-belt. V-belts transmit mechanical power efficiently between different parts of a machine. They are commonly on automobile engines to drive accessories, such as the air conditioning compressor, power steering pump, alternator, and fan. Flatbelts are designed for light-duty power transmission and high-performance conveying. They are best-suited for applications with smaller pulleys and large central distances. Flat belts can connect inside and outside pulleys and can come in both endless and jointed construction. They have a high power transmission efficiency, are cost Weare aligning and enhancing our industrial drive belt portfolio with a globally consistent naming structure. That is why you will see some changes on our product pages in the next months. More. Temperature resistant between -55 °C and +70 °C. Matched set L=L (from 1000 mm) Antistatic in accordance with ISO 1813. Moderately oil resistant. GatesV-Belts Gates V-Belts are superior in performance. • The fiber loaded rubber material providing excellent heat and wear resistance • The moulded notch construction provides reduced bending stresses around small pulleys • The form grinding provides a smooth contact point between the belt surface and the pulleys. Serpentinebelts are used in new vehicles due to the fact that they are easier to maintain and are less complicated to install. V-Belts are still used on the majority of the older, classic motors. Some simply like the style they give or having each of their accessories run on their own belt. The deep V of the v-belt can help guide the belt back into place if the alignment is slightly off UmQB9.
