Industrial V-Belts

A V-belt is a highly effective and versatile component designed for power transmission between shafts. Its trapezoidal shape allows it to fit securely within the grooves of a sheave, maximizing surface contact and ensuring superior stability.

When tension is applied, vertical forces push the belt’s sides against the sheave grooves, creating a strong wedging effect. This increased friction enhances grip, improves torque transmission, and minimizes power loss due to slippage.

The high load-bearing capacity of a V-belt comes from the multiple frictional forces it generates when engaged with the sheave. The tighter the fit, the more efficient the power transfer—making V-belts an ideal choice for a wide range of applications.
