These types of belts combine the high flexibility of flat belts with the high performance of V-belts.
The parallel ribs that are V shaped are made out of wear resistant material. The high strength tension cord allows for many applications of the belt. These belts come in a number of profiles with each profile having specific applications.
SPECIFICATIONS
& PROPERTIES
The top surface of ribbed belts is made from wear resistant polychloroprene rubber compound while the tension cord is a low stretch polyester cord. Some of the features of ribbed belts include:
- Small pulley diameter
- The cord is embedded in a rubber adhesive mixture
- Low noise and vibration
- Good dynamic power transmission ability
- High belt speeds
- Can withstand shock load as well as short term overload
- High transmission ratio
- Cooler running with high drive efficiency
- By increasing the number of ribs, power performance can be improved
