    Measure your old V-belt, timing belt, or pulleys to find the right belt replacement if you don’t know the trade size.

    High-Capacity Narrow-Wedge Cogged V-Belts

    A narrow belt profile transmits up to three times the horsepower of standard cogged V-belts for use on heavy duty drives with shock loads. Notches increase flexibility for bending around small-diameter pulleys and dissipate heat for a long service life.

    Banded V-Belts

    Also known as serpentine belts, these have multiple bands that function as a single unit for consistent drive performance and even load distribution. They handle shock loads better than standard belts.
