Your drives can deliver the horsepower you want at a lower
component cost—and with lower energy costs—when
you include Goodyear Engineered Products Torque-Flex
V-belts in the design.
They are fully cogged to provide the flexibility needed to
keep their high-traction rubber edges in contact with the
sheave grooves. This high efficiency allows you to achieve the
horsepower you need at a lower total drive cost.

Rigid quality assurance programs imposed during Torque-Flex
V-belt manufacture result in belt angles and belt lengths which
are more exact than standard belts. This results in quiet, smooth-
running, and long-lasting belts. Think what that can save in
reduced downtime and belt maintenance.
Of course, with such exacting production requirements, our
Torque-Flex V-belts also achieve consistent uniformity from
run to run. This outstanding consistency means you can be
sure that two belts of the same size designation will match, no
matter when they were produced. As a result:
• You eliminate mismatching problems caused by individual
belts that may be too loose or too tight.
• You simplify ordering procedures—no lengthy
specifications, detailing match-ups, and sizing.
• No complicated time-consuming matching. Your Goodyear
Engineered Products belts are automatically matched
when you buy them.
• You reduce your in-plant inventory. The Matchmaker
system covers your needs with a minimum of belts to
save you space and inventory dollars.

The high-strength and high horsepower capacity of Torque-Flex
V-belts means you need fewer belts and fewer sheave grooves to
deliver the same amount of horsepower.

The same design and construction features which lead to
high horsepower ratings for Torque-Flex V-Belts also lead to
improvements in energy efficiency of up to 4%, depending on
sheave diameter.

• Premium classical profile construction.
• 25% – 30% higher power ratings than standard
V-belts.
• Strong Vytacord
®
(polyester) tensile members.
• Engineered cushion compound.
• Cut-edge cogged construction on most sizes.
• Heat, ozone, and abrasion resistant.
• Matchmaker

to eliminate mismatch.
• 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.
