Metric wrapped V-belt with a narrow wedge profile, allowing for higher speed ratios, shorter center distances, and more compact drives. It can act as a direct replacement belt on equipment in industrial applications, such as machine tools, textile mills, and food processing plants. High-density polyester tension members, treated for fatigue and elongation resistance, minimize maintenance costs. At the same time, an oil- and heat-resistant bias-cut envelope protects the belt’s inner components against dirt, oil, and heat. Banprene compression maintains uniformity of the tension member cross-section while remaining flexible enough to reduce heat buildup, one of the primary causes of premature belt failure. Its impregnated fabric provides lateral stability while permitting axial flexibility for operating around small pulley diameters.
