V-belts are to be used when synchronisation or timing is not required, V-belts make an excellent low-cost, quiet and efficient means of transmitting power.
V-belts are one of the most versatile and reliable solutions for mechanical power transmission when synchronisation or precise timing is not required. Renowned for their quiet operation, strength, and cost-effectiveness, they remain the industry standard for countless machinery types. At Bearing King, we stock a full selection of V and wedge belts designed to deliver maximum performance, durability, and energy efficiency across a wide range of applications.
Classical V-Belts – Proven Performance
Classical V-belts, sometimes referred to as wrapped V-belts, were the first power-transmission belts introduced to the market. Their trapezoidal profile allows excellent grip and torque transmission between the pulley and belt, reducing slippage and wear. Constructed from high-quality rubber compounds reinforced with strong tensile cords, these belts offer superior flexibility and dimensional stability.
At Bearing King, we supply the complete Dunlop and PIX classical V-belt range:
-
Dunlop A Section V Belts 13×8 mm – Reliable performance for industrial and agricultural drives.
-
Dunlop B Section V Belts 17×11 mm – Engineered for consistent power delivery and extended belt life.
-
Dunlop C Section V Belts 22×14 mm – Heavy-duty design ideal for demanding industrial machinery.
-
Dunlop D Section Belts 32×19 mm – Built for high-power transmission systems and crusher applications.
-
Dunlop Z Section V Belts 10×6 mm – Compact profile for smaller pulleys and light-duty equipment.
PIX Wrapped V-Belts – Precision and Durability
Our PIX Wrapped V-Belts are developed through years of research and manufacturing excellence. Each belt is reinforced with pre-stretched cords to ensure minimal elongation and long-term stability. The advanced rubber compounds used in the PIX range provide excellent heat, oil, and abrasion resistance, making them suitable for both light and heavy industrial operations.
-
PIX A Section Wrapped V Belts 13×8 mm – Flexible, durable, and perfect for standard drives.
-
PIX B Section Wrapped V Belts 17×11 mm – High-tensile design for dependable everyday performance.
-
PIX C Section Wrapped V Belts 22×14 mm – Engineered to handle high-torque, heavy-duty equipment.
-
PIX D Section Wrapped V Belts 32×19 mm – Built for powerful industrial and agricultural machinery.
-
PIX Z Section Wrapped V Belts 10×6 mm – Compact and efficient for small-drive installations.
Wedge Belts – Compact Power and Efficiency
Wedge belts were developed to meet the demand for higher power transmission within reduced installation space. Their advanced design provides a greater contact area between the pulley and belt, allowing higher torque transmission without increasing the overall drive size. The optimised cord placement and dimensional precision improve flexibility and reduce stress, extending operational life.
Wedge belts are ideal for compact systems such as crushers, compressors, machine tools, and industrial pumps, where high load capacity and reliability are essential. They offer smooth running characteristics, low vibration, and excellent resistance to fatigue, even under demanding continuous-duty conditions.
