Speedo RSS 3 Industrial Belts, Certification : ISO 9001:2015

Listing ID #4019296

Belts and pulleys are core machinery elements in a number of industries, from manufacturing to mining/quarries and agriculture, acting as a core source of motion or power transmission in machines (a conveyor belt for example).

There are also a number of different belt styles. Timing belts have ‘teeth’ or ‘notches’ inside which fit into a matching toothed pulley. This ensures no slippage, meaning the belt runs at a constant speed. These can be used in place of chains and gears as they work in the same way but require less lubrication and make less noise.

V Belts, or Vee Belts, take this notion a step further, as their ‘teeth grooves’, instead of being straight/rectangular are triangular/trapezoidal – giving them their ‘V belt’ name. The unique shape of the Speedo belts ensures minimum slippage.

Ribbed belts, on the other hand, have lengthwise grooves that can distribute tension across the surface of the pulley to increase the durability and lifespan of the parts and reduce vibration. Other styles include flat belts, round belts, rope drives, multi-groove belts and film belts.
