The POLEA 160 4C is an EMMAR V-belt pulley built with a 160 mm diameter and 4 grooves in section C. It transfers motion from a motor shaft to driven equipment, splitting the load across several belts running side by side. It suits drives that call for solid torque transfer, a defined speed ratio and a bit of forgiveness for minor misalignment. Mounting is on a keyed shaft, held with a set screw or a bushing depending on the bore configuration.

Read the code in three parts: 160 is the reference pitch diameter in millimeters, 4 is the number of grooves, and C is the belt profile the grooves are cut for. Section C covers wide-profile V-belts, the choice when medium to high power has to move through a small groove count. Running four belts instead of one spreads the working load, so each belt carries less and the drive tolerates more abuse.

Typical installations include compressors, fans, centrifugal pumps, conveyors, mixers and milling machinery. The same pulley also shows up on agricultural equipment and implements driven from a power take-off. In every case it sits on the shaft of either the motor or the driven machine and pairs with a pulley of a different diameter to step RPM up or down to what the process needs.

When specifying, work from the shaft diameter, the fastening method (keyway, set screw or taper bushing), the center distance between shafts and the ratio you are targeting. Confirm the belt section matches the pulley and that both pulleys in the drive carry the same groove count. At assembly, line the pulleys up with a straightedge or laser, set belt tension per the belt maker's instructions, and verify the grooves run parallel.

Need a different diameter, groove count or section? An equivalent pulley from the same line can be quoted. Send the code, your shaft diameter and the belt section in use, and we will confirm the match. We can also check whether more grooves at the same diameter, or another diameter altogether, gets you closer to the final speed your equipment requires.
