the serpentine belt

At the core of the A Toothed Flat Belt Drive system lies its distinctive structure. The belt consists of a wide, flat surface that is often reinforced with materials such as rubber or polyurethane. This design ensures optimal friction between the belt and the pulleys it engages with. The “toothed” aspect refers to the presence of teeth or grooves on the inner surface of the belt, which allows for effective engagement with sprockets. This feature minimizes slippage, ensuring power is transmitted reliably without loss.
