Ribbed belt

poly Vrubberfor food

Product overview
Double-sided Poly V is a power transmission belt with longitudinal ribs on both sides. It transmits power on each side of the belt and can drive pulleys in both directions.

Key benefits

• Approximately twice the contact surface compared with a single-sided Poly V for an equivalent pulley width, increasing power transmission capacity.
• Enables power transmission on both faces of the belt for compact, bidirectional drives.
• Profile allows controlled slippage to absorb sudden torque spikes and blockages, protecting the transmission.

Applications
The double-sided Poly V belt suits applications where pulley direction must change, including:

• Cylinder crushers (e.g., milling industry, animal feed)
• Dough moulders and sheeters for bakeries
• Agricultural machinery (e.g., cultivators)
• Textile machinery (e.g., carding machines)
• Gardening equipment (e.g., lawn/garden tractors)
• Roller mills for flour production

Performance & design

• Contact surface: approximately twice that of a standard Poly V for equivalent pulley width, enabling double-sided power transmission.
• High torque capability with protection against shocks and partial blockages due to the profile allowing controlled slippage.
• Available profiles: K and L.
