CRE Wedge Belts (Cogged Raw Edge) are engineered to provide maximum power transmission in small, high-performance drives. Featuring a raw edge design, with precision cut cogs, they provide more flexibility, have a better grip and higher efficiency than wrapped wedge belts of a similar size. They are ideal for transmitting larger power loads at smaller pulley diameters, making them the ideal choice for many applications.

Engineered for High Performance

The cogged profile of the CRE Wedge Belt, offers a reduction in bending resistance, enabling the belt to flex at a lesser load around pulleys with this also drawing less heat during this operation. Providing enhanced efficiency, lifespan and lower energy use, particularly in rigorous or high velocity applications.

Key advantages include:

– Higher power transmission capacity
– Superb flexibility in pack and box for compact drive systems
– Reduced heat build-up
– Able to resist oil, heat and abrasion
– Low belt tension ensures uniform performance
– Smooth, quiet operation
– Provides longer service life and requires less maintenance

These advantages make CRE Wedge Belts perfect for when space is restricted, but performance cannot be compromised.

Typical Applications

Dedicated to the high-quality production of gear and wedge belts, CRE Wedge Belts are a popular product used in many parts of industry where reliable and efficient power transmission is needed. They are used in a range of machinery including:

– Pumps and compressors
– Industrial fans and blowers
– Agricultural machinery
– Manufacturing equipment
– Material handling systems
– Quarrying and mining equipment
– HVAC systems
– General engineering applications

This provides a more compact drive package with a higher power capability, making them a viable upgrade or OEM unit.
