The primary function of a tooth v belt is to transfer motion and force from one component to another, maintaining a specific timing between engine parts. The belt features triangular-shaped teeth that fit into matching grooves on pulleys, allowing for a firm grip without slipping, which is a common issue with regular flat belts. The design of tooth v belts ensures that they can handle significant loads while maintaining accuracy in the timing of the engine cycle.

A universal V-belt is a type of belt that is widely adaptable and can fit into many different applications. Typically made from materials such as rubber, polyester, or a combination of elastomers, these belts are designed with a trapezoidal cross-section that allows them to navigate pulleys effectively. The unique shape of the V-belt ensures that it maintains a solid grip on the pulley surfaces, reducing slippage and enhancing power transmission efficiency.
