3VX Cogged Wedge Banded Industrial V Belt
Banded 3VX Cogged Wedge Industrial V-Belts – High-Efficiency Power Transmission for Demanding Applications
The Banded 3VX Cogged Wedge Industrial V-Belt is a premium power transmission solution designed for compact, high-speed industrial drives. Engineered for maximum efficiency, durability, and alignment stability, this belt combines the power of wedge geometry with the flexibility of cogged construction and the added strength of a banded profile.
Each 3VX cogged belt features precision-molded notches on the inner surface to reduce bending resistance, increase flexibility, and improve heat dissipation—making it ideal for small diameter pulleys and high-speed applications. The banded design unites multiple belts into a single, solid unit using a reinforced backing band, which eliminates belt whip, vibration, and lateral movement.
The 3VX profile includes a top width of 3/8 inch (per rib) and a height of 5/16 inch, making it perfectly suited for space-constrained systems that demand consistent torque and belt tracking.
