The article presents the results of a study of the contact strength of V-belt pulleys when they work on contact collapse. To increase the wear resistance and contact strength of the tribological conjugation, a method for rolling around the side surfaces of pulleys with a roller and a device for its implementation are proposed. The proposed method and device can increase the wear resistance of the pulleys, and hence the durability of 1.6 ... 2.1 times.
