AA Industrial Double Hex Classical V-Belt – Dual-Sided Power for Serpentine Drive Systems
Engineered for Multi-Directional Industrial Power Transmission
The AA Industrial Double Hex Classical V-Belt—often called a double-sided V-belt—is specifically designed for serpentine and multi-pulley systems requiring power transmission from both sides of the belt. With its hexagonal (double-V) cross-section, the AA belt delivers smooth, efficient engagement on pulleys from the top and bottom surfaces, making it an essential component in complex industrial and agricultural machinery.
Key Specifications
Built for Strength, Flexibility, and Long Service Life
Constructed from premium rubber compounds and reinforced with polyester or aramid tensile cords, AA belts provide exceptional durability and load-carrying capability. Their unique shape ensures maximum flexibility as the belt twists and bends around multiple pulleys in opposing directions.

Applications
Ideal for Serpentine and Multi-Pulley Drive Systems
AA double-sided V-belts are commonly used where directional changes and pulley reversals make traditional single-sided belts ineffective. Typical applications include:
-
Agricultural machinery: balers, combines, conditioners, hay equipment
-
Industrial serpentine conveyors
-
HVAC blowers and multi-shaft compressors
-
Lawn and garden equipment
-
Material handling and packaging machinery
Their ability to transmit power from both sides allows designers to create compact, efficient drive layouts without sacrificing performance.
