The Difference between Toothed V-belt And Ordinary V-belt

‌‌The main difference between toothed V-belt and ordinary V-belt is that the inner ring bottom of the toothed V-belt is designed to be sawtooth-shaped, while ordinary V-belt does not have this design. ‌ Toothed V-belt has greater advantages than ordinary V-belt, including high speed, high temperature resistance, and use on pulleys with smaller diameters.

Toothed V-belt is currently widely used in truck engines, and it can be seen in many models. In contrast, although the application of ordinary V-belt is also very wide, it has been gradually eliminated due to its weak power transmission ability and short life. ‌

The special design of the toothed V-belt enables it to disperse stress and reduce stress concentration during operation, thereby improving the fatigue resistance of the V-belt. In addition, the tooth design of the toothed V-belt gives it better sealing performance, which can effectively prevent oil leakage and is suitable for occasions requiring sealed transmission. These characteristics make the toothed V-belt widely used in many fields, such as agricultural machinery, construction machinery, mining equipment, generator sets, water pumps, etc.

In general, the toothed V-belt performs well in special application scenarios such as high speed, high temperature, and small diameter pulleys due to its unique design and performance, while the ordinary V-belt still has its market position in some basic applications due to its simple structure and lower cost. The choice of which type of V-belt to use mainly depends on the specific application requirements and environmental conditions.
