- The belt powers engine accessories by transmitting the torque from the engine to the ancillary components, connecting the alternator, the hydraulic pump, the air conditioning compressor, the fan, the power steering pump, and sometimes the water pump. V-ribbed belts combine the benefits of flat belt flexibility with a v-belt's power transmission capability.
- Its multiple ribs run along the pulleys of the engine accessories, and those ribs provide superior friction and tracking to ensure proper operation of all driven components.
- V-ribbed belts provide the ultimate belt design for use on today's modern engines where spaces and weight are critical.
Description
- Specially engineered cover fabric enhances horizontal rigid, protects tension member, and dampens the friction pressure from tensile cord under high temperature.
- Rib structure increases flexibility, improves heat dissipation and allows them to operatre at high speed on small diameter pulleys.
- The specially processed cord materials effectively reduces elongation and improves pulley power transmission.
- Short-fiber reinforced CR and EPDM increases wearability, noise rating and temperature resistance.
- Wide operation temperature ranges from -40°C to 150°C.
- Manufactured by grinding or mold pressing.
Technical Features and Properties
Benefits
- Great stability thanks to transversely woven fibres, low cord elasticity and a special rubber minimizes slippage and stretching
- Minimum vibration and low noise, resistant to shock loading and pulsating operation, excellent bending and flexing capability
- Superior flexibility and power transmission efficiency, compatible with smaller pulleys with high speed rotation
- Excellent resistance to oil, ultraviolet light radiation, high temperatures, attrition and ageing
- Improved crack and flex fatigue resistance and reduced heat build-up
- A compact and economical option for multi-ribbed drive
Other Applications
Primarily in high speed rotation with small pulley diameter:
