Metric Variable Speed Belts – DIN

Description

CG Belting Metric Variable Speed Belts are specially designed drive belts manufactured according to DIN (Deutsches Institut für Normung) standards, ensuring uniform dimensions, reliable performance, and interchangeability across different manufacturers. These high-strength belts are engineered to operate with variable pitch pulleys, allowing smooth and precise speed adjustment in industrial and mechanical systems.

The belts feature a wider flat-to-trapezoidal cross-section for smooth engagement with variable speed pulleys and are reinforced with strong tension cords, such as polyester or aramid, to minimise stretching under load. High-quality rubber and synthetic compounds provide excellent flexibility, heat resistance, and extended service life, even in demanding operating conditions.

CG Belting Metric Variable Speed Belts follow DIN standard specifications for dimensions, tolerances, and performance requirements. Common DIN profile designations include W16, W22, and W31.5, ensuring compatibility with pulleys and systems from various brands and manufacturers.

These belts operate with variable pitch pulleys (sheaves that open and close), changing the belt’s running diameter to provide continuous and smooth speed variation. They are widely used in machine tools such as lathes, milling machines, and drill presses, as well as textile machinery, industrial fans, pumps, compressors, and agricultural equipment.

Key advantages of CG Belting Metric Variable Speed Belts include standardised DIN sizing for easy replacement, smooth stepless speed adjustment, high torque transmission capability, and a long operational service life.
