ACDelco is introducing new Professional V-Ribbed Aramid serpentine belts designed for demanding applications that require advanced technology and materials.

Aramid cord is stronger than steel. Belts with aramid cord reduce noise, vibration and harshness – the most common reasons for customer complaints. ACDelco’s V-Ribbed Aramid belts are an ideal choice for engines with high specific output; turbocharged engines; diesel engines and engines with challenging accessory drive geometry.

ACDelco is launching 11 part numbers of V-Ribbed Aramid belts covering the following applications:
