Like all Torque Transmission pulleys, the V belt pulleys utilize the advantages of nylon construction while also using a machined aluminum hub for additional strength. The nylon construction keeps the pulleys lightweight so they have lower inertia, and therefore lower energy requirements. This means that a smaller motor may be used, the time to accelerate and decelerate is decreased, and the machines overall process time is greatly increased.
Some of the most common applications for V belt pulleys include:
