The belt length of various V-Belts and Synchronous Belts on a 2 pulley drive may be estimated using the formula below.
Belt Length = 2C + 1.57(D + d) + | (D - d)2 |
| 4C |
C = Shaft Center Distance
For "L" series belts
- Belt Length = Belt Outside Diameter
- D = O.D. of Larger Pulley
- d = O.D. of Smaller Pulley
For A,B,C series belts
- Belt Length = Datum Length
- D = Datum Diameter of Larger Pulley
- d = Datum Diameter of Smaller Pulley
For Syncronous belts
- Belt Length = Pitch Length
- D = Pitch Diameter of Larger Sprocket
- d = Pitch Diameter of Smaller Sprocket
