Description

PoweRated V-Belts are designed as an alternative to conventional light-duty belts, with high-performance construction to deliver more horsepower, less stretch, and provide longer service life. They are recommended for heavy-duty drives and clutching applications.

  • Aramid Tensile Cords combine limited stretch with high strength and durability
  • Low cord positioning in thin profile gives extreme flexibility
  • Fabric reinforcement on the bottom ensures crack resistance if back idler is used
  • Temperature Range -22 degrees F to +140 degrees F
  • Meets RMA oil and heat-resistant standards
  • PoweRated belts do not meet RMA requirements for static conductivity
