Cogged V-Belts (AX, BX, CX) Variable Speed V-Belts Metric V-Belts (SPZ, SPA, SPB, SPC) Synchronous Timing V-Belts Pulleys & BushingsV-belts in manufacturing commonly come in these standardized cross-section sizes:
Classical (Traditional) V-Belts
- A (1/2" wide) – Light-duty applications, small compressors, fans
- B (21/32" wide) – General purpose, most widely used in manufacturing
- C (7/8" wide) – Medium-heavy duty, pumps, compressors
- D (1-1/4" wide) – Heavy-duty, large industrial drives
- E (1-1/2" wide) – Extra heavy-duty, high-horsepower applications
Narrow V-Belts (more efficient, increasingly preferred)
- 3V (3/8" wide) – Light to medium duty
- 5V (5/8" wide) – Medium to heavy duty, very common in industrial settings
- 8V (1" wide) – Heavy-duty, high-torque drives
Light-Duty / Fractional Horsepower (FHP)
- 2L, 3L, 4L, 5L – Used in smaller equipment like HVAC units, appliances, and light machinery
Key points for manufacturing:
- B and C sections are the most frequently encountered on general plant equipment
- 5V is extremely common in newer industrial machinery due to its efficiency
- Narrow belts (3V, 5V, 8V) can transmit more power in less space than classical belts
- Belt length is designated by a number following the section letter (e.g., B75 = B-section, 75" pitch length)
Most maintenance departments stock A, B, C, and 5V belts as their core inventory to cover the majority of plant equipment needs.
Industrial Strength Belts for Demanding Jobs
Manufacturing environments place extraordinary demands on power transmission systems. From extreme temperatures to constant vibration, your belt-driven equipment faces challenges that standard components simply can't handle. Our industrial strength belts are engineered specifically for these demanding conditions, providing:
