5VK Aramid Wedge Banded Industrial V Belt
Banded 5VK Aramid Wedge Industrial V-Belts – High-Torque Power and Superior Durability for Demanding Applications
The Banded 5VK Aramid Wedge Industrial V-Belt is a premium, heavy-duty drive belt designed for high-horsepower, high-speed industrial equipment. Engineered with aramid fiber (Kevlar®) tensile cords, these belts offer superior strength, resistance to elongation, and long-term durability in harsh operating environments.
The 5VK profile features a 5/8 inch top width and a 0.61 inch height, ideal for transmitting more power in a compact space compared to classical V-belts. The banded construction joins multiple belt ribs with a high-strength reinforced fabric backing, which ensures even tension distribution, enhanced belt alignment, and resistance to vibration, shock loading, and belt whip. This makes them ideal for multi-groove sheave systems and applications with long center distances or fluctuating loads.
Crafted from oil-, heat-, and abrasion-resistant rubber compounds, and reinforced with aramid cords, Banded 5VK belts are built to last in demanding environments where traditional belts may wear prematurely. They offer extended service life, reduced maintenance needs, and consistent performance under variable torque conditions.
