If standard V belts can’t handle the application, KB Kraftbands with Classical V Belts are a stronger, more stable alternative. Creating a stronger cross section by permanently coupling multiple classical V belts with an extremely tough band, classical V belts are used when individual belts would flip, twist or jump out of the pulley groove-a true boon for heavy duty machinery under severe shock loading or tough conditions.

Why Choose a Kraftband?

In comparison to individual V belts the Kraftband is working as one piece. Load will always be evenly distributed over every single rib. This gives improved drive stability, provides less vibration and therefore improves belt life-especially in pulsating load, vertical shaft or long Centre distance applications.

Key benefits include:

– Described as being suitable for high shock and heavy-duty loads
– Prevents belt turnover and twisting
– Improved stability on multi-groove drives
– Reduced vibration and smoother operation
– Impressive abrasion and high temperature resistance
– Perfect behaviour when exposed to oil and lubricants
– Extended lifespan with less maintenance
– Reliable performance in demanding environments

Perfect for Heavy Industrial Applications

KB Kraftbands with Classical V Belts are commonly used where standard single belts may struggle to perform reliably. Typical applications include:

– Crushers and screening equipment
– Agricultural machinery
– Quarrying and mining equipment
– Industrial compressors
– Woodworking machinery
– Heavy-duty conveyors
– Manufacturing and processing equipment

Especially ruggedly built, they are ideal in applications where machinery experiences high start-stop cycles, shock loads or demands for high power.
