DRIVE BELT JTBELT

DRIVE BELT JTBELT

DRIVE BELT JTBELT is engineered to meet the varying specifications of V-belt manufacturers, taking into consideration different measurement and production methods. While these variations can result in differing length specifications, they do not compromise the performance of the belts.

Understanding V-belt lengths involves acknowledging the industry's standards, which include external length (Le), internal length (Li), and pitch length. The pitch length is specifically defined as the measurement at approximately 3/4 height of the belt, in accordance with DIN 2215.

Another key factor in achieving reliable length measurements is the specified belt tension set by the vehicle manufacturer. This aspect is vital in the manufacturing process, leading to possible variances in V-belt dimensions across different manufacturers, even for the same vehicle model.

When selecting a belt, especially for Piaggio scooters, it is critical to inspect the oil pump belt after any incident involving a broken V-belt. If a V-belt breaks, fragments may disrupt the engine housing, potentially damaging the oil pump belt, which is located behind the variomatic and is not immediately visible. Therefore, always check the oil pump belt's condition during maintenance and replace it if necessary, as a compromised belt can result in severe piston seizure.
