Sheaves, Multiple V-Ribbed Sheave

A Multiple V-Ribbed Sheave is manufactured from high quality iron castings for belt cross sections H, J, K, L, and M. Every sheave is fabricated to customer specifications. The durability of our Multiple V-Ribbed Sheaves renders them ideal for high-speed power transmission applications.

Diamond Precision Products® offers an additional cost saving alternative to your v-belt or “multiple v-ribbed” designs by offering a combination pulley/flywheel. This cost savings feature will save you time and money.

Advantages of the Multiple V-Ribbed Sheave

• Exceptional smooth drive

A smaller belt and groove section leaves less room for variables. The result is a very smooth and relatively quiet drive.

• Durability

Our Multiple V-Ribbed Sheaves are manufactured from cast iron material giving optimum power transmission over all of the extraordinary life of the sheave.

• Higher horsepower capability in smaller space drive designs

These grooves are designed to maximize surface contact with the belt. No space is wasted. In all groove styles, only the sides of the belt make contact with the pulley. The “multiple v-ribbed” design simply creates more side contact surface by eliminating the wide bottom surface found on other styles. Greater surface contact translates directly into great power transmission capacity. The fact that each groove section is smaller than other designs means that they distort less when bent around a small diameter pulley, and arc of contact can be increased as well. The result is that by using Multiple V-Ribbed Sheaves you can transmit more power in a smaller space than with conventional drives.
