A V-belt is a type of Flexible Power Transmission Belt, characterized by its trapezoidal cross-section. This specific shape allows the belt to fit snugly into the grooves of a pulley, leading to enhanced friction and increased power transmission capabilities. V-belts come in various sizes and materials, including rubber and synthetic compounds, allowing them to handle different loads and environments. They are typically used in applications requiring a compact design and effective energy transfer.
