How do I measure a replacement belt if I don’t have the part number?
If you don’t have the part number, you can measure the old belt or the pulley system. For V-belts, measure the outside length (circumference), width across the top, and thickness. For timing or serpentine belts, count the number of teeth or ribs and measure the total length. If the belt is broken, lay it flat and measure both halves together for accuracy. When belts are stretched or worn, measurements may not be exact, so bringing the sample to a supplier for comparison is often the best approach. Photos, equipment brand, and model details can also help find a proper match.
What causes belts to crack, wear, or slip?
Cracking or premature wear in belts often results from improper tension, heat exposure, age, or contamination. Over-tensioned belts strain both the belt and pulleys, while under-tensioned belts can slip, leading to glazing and reduced grip. Heat can dry out and harden the rubber, causing surface cracks or brittleness. Dirt, oil, or water exposure can also degrade the belt over time. Regular inspection for tension, alignment, and cleanliness helps prevent these issues. Replacing belts at the first sign of damage can save time and money by avoiding further equipment damage.
How do I know if I need a cogged or wrapped V-belt?
Cogged V-belts have notches or teeth along the inner surface, allowing for greater flexibility and better heat dissipation, making them ideal for smaller pulleys or high-speed applications. Wrapped V-belts, by contrast, have a fabric cover that offers smooth operation and resistance to wear, suitable for general-purpose use and shock-loaded conditions. Cogged belts tend to be more energy efficient and run cooler, while wrapped belts provide more silent and gradual engagement. Your choice depends on the equipment design, pulley size, operating conditions, and desired longevity.
