Why does my belt keep slipping or squealing?
Slipping or squealing belts often indicate tension issues, misalignment, or wear. If a belt is too loose, it may not grip the pulley properly, leading to slippage and noise, especially during startup. Over time, belts can stretch, glaze, or develop cracks, all of which reduce their grip. Poorly aligned pulleys can also cause uneven wear or vibration, worsening the issue. Regularly inspecting your belts, checking tension, and replacing worn components is the best way to avoid performance problems. If the issue persists, a supplier can help identify the root cause and recommend a better-fitting or more durable belt.
How do I measure a belt for replacement if I don’t know the part number?
If the original part number isn’t available, you can still measure the existing belt to find a match. For V-belts, measure the outside circumference using a flexible tape or by wrapping a string around the belt path and measuring its length. Then measure the top width and thickness of the belt cross-section. For timing belts, count the number of teeth and measure the belt’s total length. Make note of the tooth shape and spacing. If the old belt is broken, lay it flat and measure end-to-end. Bringing your old belt or machine specs to a supplier is often the best way to get the right replacement.
What causes belts to wear out prematurely?
Premature belt wear can result from several common issues. Improper tension is a leading cause—belts that are too tight put excess strain on bearings and pulleys, while belts that are too loose can slip and generate heat. Misaligned pulleys create uneven contact, which leads to fraying or edge wear. Environmental factors such as dust, oil contamination, or high humidity can also degrade belt material over time. In some cases, using the wrong belt type or size for the application will cause rapid deterioration. Regular inspection, proper installation, and timely replacement help extend belt life and prevent unexpected equipment failures.
