OPEN END BELTING
V-LINK BELTING
Open End belting is similar to Prime Mover V-belts in
cross-sectional shape, but it has a carcass of heavy, cross
woven duck in which the metal fastener can be anchored
firmly.
It
is used on drives not easily
a~ce~sible
!or
in~talla
tion of endless V-belts. Open End belting IS avaIlable
In
A,
B,
and
C
cross-sections.
V-belts that can be cut to any length by the user are ideal
for emergency installation when
a
required size of endless
belt is not readily available.
When
a
belt is needed, the required length is cut off and
its ends joined with
a
metal fastener.

V-link belting can be quickly and easily installed on most
V-belt drives.
It
is used when obstructions prevent easy
installation of endless belts. It should be kept in stock for
emergency use. Simply measure off the required length and
install in minutes.
The links produce
a
perfect non-slip wedging action in
the pulley grooves. It is ideal for fixed center drives, and
eliminates the need for tensioning devices that can create
excessive strain on belts and cause premature failure.
V·links are also the answer for operations that need
a
non·standard size for endless V-belt.
V-links require no special tools for installation, but power
transmission distributors can supply an installation tool that
is quite helpful, especially on larger sections of V-link
belting.
The belting is prestretched to keep down adjustments,

helping to reduce maintenance costs. This belting operates
vibration-free at top rated speeds and will run in either
direction without jamming.
How to Measure
Measure from the first end rivet to the rivet closest to the
desired length. When detached, this becomes the first empty
rivet hole, as shown in the sketch
