Dayton Type 3V banded V-belts are designed for use with multiple belt systems in places where shock loads, pulsation or misalignment cause belts to whip, flip over, or jump off of the sheave. They are integrated with a top cover which secures the belt from coming in contact with oil and heat, as well as helps maintain the dimensional stability. These V-belts feature heavy-duty crosswise tensile cords that create a permanent connection between the individual belts. They are available in 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 number of ribs.
