March 31st, 2025

The page explains that V-belts are critical components in power transmission systems and highlights how EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer) V-belts outperform traditional rubber belts in key areas. EPDM V-belts generally offer significantly greater durability, higher load-carrying capacity, and improved high-temperature performance, making them a more reliable choice for industrial and mechanical applications despite a slightly higher upfront cost.
