Transverse element (32) for a drive belt with an endless carrier (31) and with a number of such transverse elements (32) that are each provided with a cut-out (33) for accommodating the carrier (31), which cut-out (33) extends between main faces (38, 39) of the transverse element (32) and which cut-out (33) defines a radially outward directed bearing surface (42) that contacts the carrier (31) and that on either side is provided with a bearing edge along which the carrier (31) is bend. According to the invention, these bearing edges are mutually separated over 40 to 60 % of the total separation between the said main faces (38, 39) of the transverse element (32). |
