Conical V belts, also known as cone-shaped V belts or tapered V belts, are specialized power transmission belts designed to operate on cone pulleys or sheaves. Unlike traditional V belts that run on flat pulleys, conical V belts are specifically engineered for applications where variable speed transmission is required. These belts feature a tapered profile, with one side narrower than the other, allowing them to effectively engage with pulleys of varying diameters. The unique design of conical V belts enables smooth power transmission while providing enhanced grip and traction, even in high-torque applications. They are commonly used in machinery and equipment where speed adjustments are necessary, such as agricultural machinery, industrial drives, and automotive applications.
