The poly-V serpentine belt in the engine transmission system is a small and inconspicuous part of a car. However, despite its small size, it is responsible for transmitting power to accessories such as the water pump, alternator, cooling fan, and air conditioner compressor. Without its proper functioning, our cars can't run normally and severe failures like engine breakdowns might occur.
Rubber compounds
Typically made from high-quality rubber compounds that provide flexibility and durability.
Synthetic fibers
Usually reinforced with synthetic fibers like polyester or aramid to increase strength and stability.
Additional materials
Some belts may include materials such as polyurethane to enhance wear resistance.
The poly-V serpentine belt has a large contact area with the pulley, ensuring an even load distribution and greater transmission capacity, approximately 30% more power than an ordinary V-belt.
The poly-V serpentine belt is thin and flexible, with low operational stress, resulting in less heat generation. It can operate on small diameter pulleys. For the same transmission power, the poly-V serpentine belt can effectively reduce the volume of transmission components, occupying about 25% less space than an ordinary V-belt.
The poly-V serpentine belt has low vibration during transmission, smooth operation, minimal elongation over long periods, a linear speed of up to 40 meters per second, high efficiency, and long lifespan.
The back of the poly-V serpentine belt can also transmit power, allowing for easy arrangement of complex transmission systems, thereby driving more equipment in limited spaces.
Durability
The poly-V serpentine belt combines high-quality rubber and high-strength synthetic fiber materials to ensure long-term stability and reliability. Compared to traditional belts, the poly-V serpentine belt can maintain optimal performance for a longer period, performing well even under high load and long-term operation, thereby reducing the need for frequent replacements and saving maintenance costs to some extent.
High transmission efficiency
The unique wedge design of the poly-V serpentine belt effectively increases the contact area with the pulley, reducing slippage and improving transmission accuracy. This characteristic makes the poly-V serpentine belt particularly outstanding in high-load applications, easily coping with various complex conditions, making it an ideal choice for high-power demand applications such as large machinery and industrial transmission devices.
Flexibility
Due to special material components, the poly-V serpentine belt can easily wrap around small diameter pulleys without compromising performance. This design flexibility provides important support for equipment miniaturization and compactness, becoming an advantage in modern transmission systems.
Wear resistance
The material and structural design of the poly-V serpentine belt are carefully optimized to effectively resist wear caused by long-term operation. The wear-resistant characteristics of the poly-V serpentine belt significantly reduce the need for frequent replacements and maintenance, not only extending the belt's lifespan but also achieving significant savings in the overall operational costs of the equipment, especially for industrial applications that require stable and continuous operation.
