Abstract: The invention relates to a force transmission belt, formed of at least one belt material (2) having a belt longitudinal direction and having a belt width extending transversely to the belt longitudinal direction, containing a belt back (1), a tension-bearing element zone (3) having a plurality of tension-bearing elements arranged adjacent to each other over the belt width at a distance and parallel to each other, and a force transmission zone (6) adjoining the tension-bearing element zone (3). Said force transmission belt can be formed simply, economically, and with improved running properties in that the tension-bearing elements are formed by at least two narrow strips (4) of a pre-stretched plastic material, which strips are arranged adjacent to each other over the belt width and are spaced apart from each other by belt material (2).
