The SINOCONVE 20PM Ribbed Belt uses 20 parallel ribs in the PM profile. The supplied reference dimensions are Pb = 9.4 mm, h ≈ 17 mm, and α = 40°. Nominal width: 190.5 mm.
A ribbed belt combines the flexible running characteristics of a flat belt with the pulley-grip characteristics of a V-belt. This makes it suitable for compact transmission layouts, smaller pulley diameters, high speed ratios, and multi-accessory drives when the belt, pulley, tension, and operating load are correctly matched.
20PM is a 20-rib rubber ribbed belt using the PM profile. The confirmed profile reference is Pb 9.4 mm, belt height h approximately 17 mm, and rib angle 40°. The supplied nominal-width table gives 190.5 mm for this rib-count/profile combination.
The belt combines flat-belt flexibility with V-rib wedge action for compact, high-contact power transmission. Available compound references include CR, EPDM, and EPDM with Kevlar reinforcement, while rough, glossy, fabric, and SN back-surface options can be selected.
It is suitable for paper-industry machinery, agricultural machines, fodder cutters, sugar-cane cutters, and heavy multi-rib transmission systems. The final effective length Le, material, cord, surface, pulley dimensions, and operating conditions must be confirmed before production.

| Structure | Material / Function |
|---|---|
| Belt Top Surface | Wear-resistant polychloroprene rubber compound in the illustrated standard construction |
| Tension Cord | Low-stretch polyester cord embedded in an adhesive rubber compound |
| Base Compound | Parallel V-shaped ribs made from wear-resistant rubber compound |
| Alternative Compounds | CR and EPDM options; Kevlar reinforcement can be added according to the order |
| Material Option | Reference Warranty Distance |
|---|---|
| CR | 60,000 km |
| EPDM | 80,000 km |
| EPDM + Kevlar | 100,000 km |
| Surface Option | Reference |
|---|---|
| Rough Surface | Textured belt-back option |
| Glossy Surface | Smooth glossy belt-back option |
| Fabric Surface | Fabric-covered belt-back option |
| SN Surface | SN belt-back option |
The supplied material states that the four illustrated belt-back surfaces have little difference in overall performance. Surface selection should therefore be based on contact, appearance, friction, noise, and application requirements.
| Effective Length Le Range | Limit Deviation |
|---|---|
| 2000 < Le ≤ 3000 mm | +12 / -24 mm |
| 3000 < Le ≤ 4000 mm | +15 / -30 mm |
