V-ribbed belts are actively used in modern technology. They transfer rotation from the driving unit, which is usually the crankshaft pulley, to the slave, which is the generator pulley, the power steering pump, and so on.

In a car, a V-ribbed belt is rightfully considered one of the main ones, since it is it that ensures the operation of the generator. The belt should be replaced periodically; for this, certain regulations have been established in the practice of servicing the car.

The principles of the V-ribbed belt set usage

The sale of GATES brand V-Ribbed Belt Set is necessary for any motorist, since these rubber products have the ability to wear out. If the belt breaks, this can lead to big problems: the generator stops working, you will not be able to use the power steering, if you have an air conditioner and you will not be able to use it.

A set of V-ribbed belts consists not only of a belt, but also of a tension roller, since it must also be changed when the belt is changed.
