Banded B Series Classical Industrial V-Belts – Heavy-Duty Power Transmission with Maximum Stability
Banded B Series Classical Industrial V-Belts are engineered for high-horsepower, multi-groove drive systems where strength, stability, and long service life are crucial. By permanently joining two or more B-section belts with a durable, fabric-reinforced backing, these belts provide exceptional tracking, reduced vibration, and superior resistance to belt whip or rollover—making them indispensable in high-torque and long-span applications.
Engineered for Heavy-Duty Stability and Alignment
Each B-section rib features a 5/8-inch (0.625") top width and 0.55-inch height, ensuring compatibility with standard B-groove sheaves. The banded configuration ensures that every rib works together as a unified drive element, distributing load evenly and maintaining perfect alignment. This offers significant advantages in applications exposed to shock loads, pulsating torque, or drive misalignment—conditions where single belts often fail prematurely.
Manufactured from premium heat-, oil-, and abrasion-resistant rubber compounds, Banded B Series belts incorporate high-strength polyester or aramid tensile cords to provide exceptional stretch resistance and stable performance under extreme operating conditions. Their rugged construction supports reliable operation in temperatures ranging from -30°F to +140°F, making them ideal for harsh industrial environments.
