Torque Team Plus belts are our highest capacity V-belts and known
for strength, durability, and performance.
Their tension members are Flexten or aramid cable cords. They are
twisted from aramid fiber which is five times stronger than steel,
then are treated for improved adhesion, improved flex life, and
increased resistance to shrinkage. Torque Team Plus belts exhibit
only one half of the initial elongation of other belts and maintain
greater dimensional stability over the life of the belt. They stand
up to higher horsepower, high-tension drive requirements, shock
loads, and abusive installations better than standard joined belts,
multiple V-belt teams, or chain and sprocket drives.
The cushion is made of a highly engineered compound that
resists harsh operating environments and compression fatigue.
The envelope is also rubber compound-impregnated to protect
the carcass from abrasion, heat, ozone and oil. Together, these
components offer a strong, flexible, efficient belt with extended
service life.

With Torque Team Plus, there’s less cost involved in the drive
design due to the fact that each belt can handle a given load with
a narrower width belt than either multiple V-belt or chain and
sprocket drives. This means that there is less cost incurred for the
drive medium (belts/chains), less cost for the narrower sheaves and
pulleys they use, and less cost for the downtime and labor involved
in the retensioning required by both multiple V-belt and chain
belt drives. There is no need for the lubricants and lubrication
system that chain drives need. These are some very clear advantages,
especially when you consider that you get these savings along with
a dramatic performance advantage.

There is also less weight because the smaller sheaves used for drives
using Torque Team Plus belts are a dramatic 50% lighter than
a sheave required to drive an equal horsepower multiple V-belt
drive. When compared to an equal horsepower chain drive, the
sheave weighs an incredible 65% less than the sprocket required
for the chain drive.
Torque Team Plus is more compact. In fact, a typical Torque
Team Plus belt is only one-third the width of an equivalent
multiple V-belt team. It needs 17% less space than an equivalent
chain drive.
And since Torque Team Plus belts give you all the advantages
of the joined principal (smooth tracking, no belt turnover, no
matching problems, less belt threatening vibration, even and
consistent tensioning), there is less maintenance required.

The high strength of Torque Team Plus belts provides
exceptional high-torque capabilities and horsepower ratings.
These high belt capacities may exceed standard sheave capabilities.
To assure safety and satisfactory drive operation, consult your
sheave supplier for sheave recommendations.

• Narrow profile ribs provide savings through
efficiency.
• Joined construction for problem drives.
• Up to 50% more horsepower capacity.
• High-strength Flexten tensile members.
• Oil, heat, ozone, and abrasion resistant.
• Static conductive.*
*Drive conditions and service variables in combination with time in operation can result in a loss of static conductivity. It is recommended that a conductivity check
be added to drive preventive maintenance programs where belt static conductivity is a requirement.
