Transport professionals know that their commercial vehicles only pay their way when they are on the road,
whereas breakdowns and repairs keep them out of action and cost money.
W
hich is why the new heavy

gives them a long service life.
Optimum performance under the
toughest of conditions. Upgrade
version with aramid cords
Drive belts need to be extremely reliable,
even under the toughest of conditions.
Bosch thus offers high performance
ribbed V-belts with aramid tension
members for special applications.
The tremendous strength of the tension
member ensures reliable operation, even
under extreme condition.
Professionals rely on quality, because
quality pays

Ultra-modern rubbers – For optimal
wear resistance under the toughest of
conditions
High-tech cords – In the upgrade
version it is reinforced with aramid
cords which is extremely resilient due
to an even tougher tension member
Low profile height – Flexible bending
characteristics, optimum thermal
properties even with small diameters in
serpentine drives
Thanks to the use of innovative,
synthetic rubbers and high tech cords,
ribbed V-belts from Bosch offer high
tensile strength, high dimensional
stability and a high load capacity.
During driving they have low vibration
levels and very low noise. Thanks to
their minimum slip, they offer high
levels of power transmission.
They are therefore very well suited
for use with the wide axle spacings
and high engine power typical of
commercial vehicles and the strong
vibrations to which these vehicles are
subject during driving. They are even
resistant to impacts and pulsating
operation.
