Poly V Belts and Timing Belts
For: Alternator / Generator / Treadmill Motor
HOW TO MEASURE THE LENGTH OF YOUR POLY V BELT:
(1) USING A MARKER DRAW A LINE ACROSS THE BELT
(2) USING A MEASURING TAPE MEASURE THE LENGTH OF THE BELT STARTING WITH THE LINE AND ENDING WITH THE LINE
EXAMPLE: IF YOUR BELT MEASURES 28 INCHES THE FIRST PART OF THE SIZE OF THE BELT WILL BE "280"
IF YOUR BELT MEASURES 52 INCHES THE FIRST PART OF THE SIZE OF THE BELT WILL BE "520"
BY ADDING A "0" TO THE LENGTH OF THE BELT IN INCHES YOU WILL GET THE FIRST PART OF THE SIZE OF THE BELT
HOW TO MEASURE THE WIDTH OF YOUR POLY V BELT:
(1) BY COUNTING THE NUMBER OF "RIBS" YOU WILL GET YOUR WIDTH (RIBS ARE THE V NOTCHES ON THE PULLEY SIDE OF THE BELT)
COUNT THE TOP OF EACH RIB
EXAMPLE: IF YOUR BELT HAS 10 RIBS IT'S A "J10" WHICH IS THE LAST PART OF THE SIZE OF THE BELT
IF YOUR BELT HAS 8 RIBS IT'S A "J8" WHICH IS THE LAST PART OF THE SIZE OF THE BELT
BY MEASURING THE LENGTH OF YOUR BELT 28 INCHES OR "280" AND MEASURING THE WIDTH BY COUNTING THE RIBS "10" THE SIZE OF YOUR BELT IS 280J10
BY MEASURING THE LENGTH OF YOUR BELT 52 INCHES OR "520" AND MEASURING THE WIDTH BY COUNTING THE RIBS "8" THE SIZE OF YOUR BELT IS 520J8
