That's total BS Bob.
The "cogs" are really just there to eliminate stress in the belt as it
curves around pulleys.
A "V" belt must ride on its side faces without the inside surface bottoming
out in any pulley.

                          <div> I finally got around to fixing my loose

                            belt. I ordered a &#39;cogged&#39; belt from

                            better than the original slab of rubber. I
