The present invention relates to a power transmission belt containing a frictional power transmission part and a fiber member that covers a surface of the frictional power transmission part, in which the fiber member is formed of a fiber (A) containing a water-absorbent fiber (A1) and contains a surfactant, to a fiber member used in the power transmission belt, and to a method for manufacturing the fiber member.

A pultrusion method for making a composite elevator belt includes pulling at least one load carrier strand coated with a core layer into a pultrusion die including a plurality of molding teeth and intervening spaces between the molding teeth having a profile shaped to form a desired profile of belt teeth on the core layer. The method further includes filling the intervening spaces between the molding teeth of the rotating die with resin, depositing the resin on the core layer, forming a plurality of the belt teeth on the core layer using the rotating die, pulling the core layer with formed belt teeth into a jacket extruder, and forming a jacket layer on the core layer with the formed belt teeth to complete the composite elevator belt.

A surface sheet which is to constitute a surface layer and a core sheet which is to constitute a core layer are prepared. A plurality of ridges is formed on the core sheet, and the surface sheet is bonded such that the surface sheet covers the plurality of ridges, thereby forming compression layer-forming portions.
