The V-belt owes its name to its trapezoidal shape, which allows for a firm fit inside the pulley grooves, increasing friction and preventing slippage. It is manufactured with rubber compounds reinforced with fibers or polyester cords, providing great durability, flexibility, and tensile strength.
It is widely used in electric motors, compressors, fans, pumps, and industrial or agricultural machinery, where reliable and quiet transmission is required.
Its design allows it to absorb vibrations and small misalignments, reducing component wear and ensuring stable operation.
The V-belt combines simplicity, efficiency, and long service life, making it one of the most common and economical solutions for mechanical power transmission.
