    where is the angle (in radians) between the two flat sides of the pulley that the v-belt presses against. [5] A flat belt has an effective angle of α = π {\displaystyle \alpha =\pi } . The material of a V-belt or multi-V serpentine belt tends to wedge into the mating groove in a pulley as the load increases, improving torque transmission.
