Banded 8VK Aramid Wedge Industrial V-Belts – Extreme Strength for Maximum Load Industrial Power Transmission
The Banded 8VK Aramid Wedge Industrial V-Belt is engineered for extreme-duty industrial drive systems that demand exceptional power transmission, high shock-load resistance, and maximum operational stability. With aramid fiber (Kevlar®) tensile cords, these belts offer unmatched strength, reduced elongation, and superior resistance to wear and fatigue under continuous stress.
The 8VK profile features a 1-inch top width per rib and a 1.06 inch height, delivering more horsepower in less space than standard classical belts. The banded configuration unites multiple 8VK belts into one reinforced unit with a durable fabric backing that maintains perfect belt alignment, reduces vibration, and prevents belt whip or turnover—ideal for long center distances and pulsating loads.
Constructed from heat-, oil-, and abrasion-resistant rubber compounds, and reinforced with aramid cords, the Banded 8VK Aramid belts are designed to endure harsh industrial environments while delivering reliable, long-lasting performance. Their rugged build supports high RPMs, heavy torque loads, and continuous duty cycles with minimal maintenance.
