EPDM CR Ribbed Automotive Serpentine V Belt
A ribbed automotive serpentine V belt, also known as a serpentine belt or multi-ribbed belt, is a type of power transmission belt commonly used in automotive engines to drive multiple components such as the alternator, water pump, power steering pump, and air conditioning compressor.
The ribbed design of the belt features multiple V-shaped ribs on the inner surface, which provide increased surface contact with the pulleys, allowing for better grip and traction. This design helps reduce slippage and improve efficiency in power transmission, resulting in smoother operation and reduced energy consumption.
Ribbed automotive serpentine V belts are typically made from a durable rubber compound with polyester cords or aramid fibers for reinforcement. This construction provides flexibility, strength, and resistance to heat, oil, and abrasion, making them suitable for use in automotive applications where reliability and performance are crucial.
These belts are designed to withstand the high speeds, temperatures, and loads commonly found in automotive engines. They are available in various sizes and lengths to fit different vehicle models and engine configurations, providing a reliable and efficient power transmission solution for modern vehicles.
