This British Standard specifies the dimensions and certain other properties of endless wedge belts, V-belts and equivalent banded belts and their corresponding grooved pulleys, when used for power transmission.
Recommendations and information on the design, selection and installation of drive assemblies are given in Annex C and Annex E. Recommendations on the storage of belts are given in Annex B.
This standard does not apply to industrial variable speed drives employing pulleys with movable flanges, or to drives specified in BS 3733 or BS ISO 5287.
