E section is the largest classical V-belt: 1-1/2" top width by 1" thick with a 40° angle, built for the highest-horsepower industrial drives. Texas Belting & Supply stocks 16 Megadyne E section belts in lengths from 150 to 486 inches, the direct continuation of the Jason Industrial E section line.
Where E Section Belts Are Used
E section belts drive the heaviest equipment in industry: rock crushers, large compressors, mine ventilation fans, oil-field pumping units, and mill drives, typically in multi-belt sets on large-diameter sheaves. For matched-set performance, order all belts in a set at the same time.
Frequently Asked Questions
What are the dimensions of an E section V-belt?
E section measures 1-1/2 inches across the top, 1 inch deep, with a 40-degree included angle. It is the largest standard classical section, above D section.
Do Megadyne E section belts replace Jason Industrial E belts?
Yes, one-for-one. The same part number (for example E240) now ships under the Megadyne brand with identical dimensions and construction.
Can I mix old and new belts in a multi-belt set?
No. Belts stretch in service, so a new belt mixed with worn belts will carry a disproportionate share of the load and fail early. Replace the complete set.
Need help selecting a belt?
