Abstract
Short aramid fibers extruded from a side face of each rib in a V-ribbed belt are formed in curled shape. The root portions of the extruded short aramid fibers are raised from the side face of the rib. The tip portion of each extruded short aramid fiber is bowed in a direction different from a bowing direction of its medial portion. The extruded sections of the short aramid fibers are different in bowing direction from one another to decentralize the orientation thereof.
