The DRIVE BELT JTBELT is essential for maintaining the functionality of your vehicle. Different measurement and production methods by V-belt manufacturers may result in varying length specifications, but rest assured, these differences do not compromise the performance of the belts.
It's crucial to understand that industry standards influence the parameters used for length specifications. Length distinctions include external length (Le), internal length (Li), and pitch length, with the pitch length measured at approximately 3/4 height of the belt in accordance with DIN 2215.
When determining the proper length, it's important to consider the belt tension specified by the vehicle manufacturer, as this factors significantly into the production process.
Due to these varying measurement techniques, it's possible to encounter different V-belt dimensions from various manufacturers within the same vehicle. For Piaggio scooters, special care must be taken regarding the oil pump belt after a V-belt failure. Damaging incidents involving flying belt fragments could impact the oil pump belt, which is situated behind the variomatic and may not be immediately visible.
It is advisable to inspect the condition of the oil pump belt after a broken V-belt to ensure there is no damage that could lead to severe issues like piston seizure. Always prioritize checking the oil pump belt and replacing it if necessary.
