Wholesale Metric V Belt for Sale
Metric v belts are v belts designed according to metric standards. They transmit power from the driving pulley to the driven pulley through friction and are widely used in various industrial machinery.
ZQDrive metric v belts feature a compact design, smooth transmission, anti-static properties, and high load capacity, effectively reducing vibration and noise during operation of your equipment.
The narrow design enables metric v belts to achieve compact layouts in limited spaces while enhancing transmission efficiency and reducing energy loss and slippage.

Metric V Belt Your Ideal Choice for Industrial Applications
ZQDrive metric v belts are primarily used in industrial applications for light to medium equipment, suitable for both high-power, high-speed mechanical drives and general power transmission. If your equipment uses standard metric pulleys, they can be easily installed and used on equipment with standard metric pulleys. Common applications include: pumps, industrial water vacuums, printing presses, industrial fans, compressors, machine tools, blowers, textile machinery, mixers, crushers, and packaging and conveying systems, etc.


Know Your Metric V Belt Construction
The components of metric v belt include:
- Cover Fabric: Resists heat, dust, and oil, while providing grip and wear resistance, effectively extending the life of your metric v belt.
- Adhesion Rubber: Tightly bonds the tension cord, cover fabric, and compression rubber to prevent separation between layers.
- Tension Cord: Resists bending fatigue and impact loads.
- Compression Rubber: Provides lateral rigidity and cushioning shock absorption, enhances transmission efficiency, while also offering heat dissipation capabilities.
Metric V Belts Enable More Compact Belt Drives
Metric v belt is a deep wedge v belt compliant with ISO standards. It requires significantly less space than classic v belt under the same load, making it suitable for mechanical transmissions that deliver greater power and higher speed ratios. Its narrow cross-section design provides a larger contact surface and higher coefficient of friction, ensuring superior grip and stability. This enables a more compact drive arrangement with a smaller center distance.
For this reason, ZQDrive metric v belts are ideal for drive systems with limited space and demanding requirements for weight and power, enabling you to achieve efficient and compact belt drives.

The operating temperature range for metric v belts is -30°C to +90°C. Exceeding this temperature range will accelerate belt aging or affect transmission performance.
The part number for ZQDrive metric v belt begins with “SP,” followed by the letters A, B, C, or Z, which together denote the belt’s profile section. The remaining numeric portion indicates the circumference pitch length. For example, SPZ 950 belt indicates a profile section of SPZ and a circumference pitch length of 950 mm.
Additionally, some brands of metric v belts may append specific letters after the belt number to indicate length type: LW represents pitch length, LI represents inner diameter circumference, and LA represents outer diameter circumference.
We offer four models of metric v belts (SPA SPB SPC SPZ V Belt). When selecting metric v belts, ensure the belt’s dimensions, length, and profile match your equipment. Specific selection should be based on parameters such as equipment rotational speed, transmission power, pulley diameter, and center distance. Refer to standard models and manufacturer selection manuals to ensure optimal belt drive power transmission.
The difference between metric v belt and classic v belt is:
- Size standards: Metric v belts are categorized using metric size standards, while classic v belts use the inch system.
- Design: Metric v belt features a narrower and deeper cross-section compared to the classic v belt.
- Power transmission: Metric v belts transmit 1.5 to 2 times more power than classic v belts, with a transmission efficiency over 95%.
- Space requirements: Metric v belts feature a more compact design, requiring less space than classic v belts under the same load conditions.
The maximum belt speed for metric v belts can reach 40 m/s, but specific applications should consider factors such as model, load, and equipment environment for confirmation.
