Description

V-Belts and Synchronous (Timing Belts) are used to transmit power between two rotating shafts, transferring power from the driving source to the driven machine.

Features/Benefits

V-Belts:

  • Economical cost per HP transmitted
  • Long, dependable performance (oil resistance and static conducting)
  • Provides outstanding operating efficiency
  • Clean quiet operation
  • Limited shock / vibration absorption

Synchronous / Timing Belts:

  • Timed / non-slip operation
  • Suitable for a wide variety of speed ranges
  • Low maintenance drive, no lubrication
  • Long lasting operation
  • High operating efficiency (98% typical)
