The Accessory Drive Belts are used to transmit power from the crank shaft pulleys to the various drives of the FEAD (Front Engine Accessory Drive) which includes accessory such as alternator, air conditioning compressor, hydraulic pump, or power steering.
These belts are either a V-Belt or a Multi-ribbed Belt (also called Poly-V), both are friction belts, and transmit power between the ribs of the belt and the pulleys.
Serpentine Belts run on idlers and tensioners to maintain proper tension in the whole drive system. Our MOVENDIS Accessory Drive Belts are designed to increase flexibility, reduce weight, optimise costs and reduce CO2 emissions.

Types of Serpentine Belts Trapezoidal V-Belts
The belts are used with a pulley featuring a wedge-shaped groove, usually designed to drive one or two accessory components and mostly found in older vehicles.
The MOVENDIS V-Belts are molded cogged raw edge belts.
We manufacture our belts using a proprietary EPDM compound mix that provides a long lifespan, reduces wear and vibrations; those belts are set free.
Multi Ribbed Poly-V Belts
Movendis Poly-V Belts offer a greater friction area, and better contact than conventional V-Belts.
This of course results in superior traction force, the possibility of having a more compact system, high linear speed, limited slip even in wet conditions, and high flexibility allowing for both better flexion and counter flexion.
Thus its name of serpentine PK belts, in short it is the perfect accessory drive solution.
