This SAE Standard covers the dimensioning technique, tolerances, and methods of measurement of V-ribbed belts and mating pulleys for use on automotive accessory drives.
Rationale:
This latest revision of SAE J1459 accomplishes the following:
Fixed errors in Table 1.
Added definitions and diagrams for different types of diameters used.
Added optional belt dimensioning template.
Provided correct calculations for pulley ratio calculation via pitch diameter ratio.
Provided correct calculations for converting center distance to effective length.
Updated to generic center distance tolerances to align with industry.
