Understanding the 5PK Belt A Comprehensive Guide

Auto V-belts are predominantly used in internal combustion engines to drive accessories such as the alternator, water pump, power steering pump, and air conditioning compressor. The versatility and efficiency of V-belts make them a staple in the automotive industry.

When selecting the right 5PK belt size for your application, it is crucial to measure the belt's length, width, and the distance between the pulleys. The size is typically denoted as 5PK followed by a numerical measurement that indicates the effective length of the belt in millimeters. For example, a belt labeled 5PK1000 would be a 5PK belt with an effective length of 1000mm.
