POWERTWIST V-BELTS

V-belts are a type of power transmission belt that are commonly used in industrial and mechanical applications to transfer power from one rotating component to another. They are named for their V-shaped cross section, which allows them to grip the pulley more tightly than flat belts and transmit more torque.

V-belts are made from rubber or other flexible materials and are reinforced with cords made from materials such as polyester, nylon, or aramid. The cords provide strength and stability to the belt, while the rubber provides flexibility and a smooth surface for grip.

V-belts come in a variety of sizes and configurations to match the needs of different applications. They are commonly used in automotive engines, industrial machinery, and agricultural equipment, among other applications. V-belts are preferred over other types of belts in some applications because they are relatively easy to install, require minimal maintenance, and have a long service life.
