In a belt drive system a ratio is used to determine the speed relation between two v belt pulleys.
E section v belt dimensions.
The classic v belts are the most common and economical v belt used in the power transmission industry.
Classic e240 belts have a special outer wrap for better flexibility traction.
Additionally these belts are anti staic heat oil resistant.
Also keep in mind belts do stretch and unfortunately there is no specific given value for how much a belt can stretche.
We ve designed our v belts for wear corrosion and heat resistance with.
You can also use our browning belt rule that includes a gauge to help easily identify belt type.
Standard v belts are manufactured from a special formulated rubber and reinforced high strength polyester cords for uniformity strength.
E240 v belt e series belt 1 1 2 x 246 e240 v belts are a classic style belt suitable for high speed and high torque drives on industrial agricultural equipment.
You ll also need to measure the width and depth to determine which section v belt you have.
However as belt slip is inevitable the ratio varies and is therefore only theoretical.
A series belts are the most common.
V belt specifications by belt style classic fhp v belt specs.
An example would be 4l460 which would be 46 long outside 44 inside.
V belt cross sections can be identified by their top width and depth dimensions.
For example a v belt with a top width of 21 32 and a depth of 7 16 is a b belt.
Step 2 determine if the v belt is wrapped or notched style if the belt.
Compare with the chart below.
The inside length of the belt is typically 2 less for a 4l belt and 1 1 2 less for a 3l belt.
Classic v belt numbers start with a letter identifying the cross section a through e see v belt dimensions below.
A ratio is a proportional factor between two similar objects of different sizes.
The correct section is.
What section is your v belt.
The speed ratio would be stable if slippage did not occur.
Classic kevlar v belt sections.
3l section 3 8 width x 7 32 depth.
Measure the section with a ruler measure the top width of the belt widest part of the vee and then the thickness of the belt.
