An element for a driving belt, which is easy for a ring to be fitted into a recess of the element, and which is capable of preventing deterioration of durability thereof. The element as a plate-like member includes latch portions formed on an opening end side of each inner side wall of the recess to hold a ring in its inner circumferential side. The element thus structured is juxtaposed in a circular manner to be fastened by the ring to form a driving belt. In the element, a holding face is formed on an inner circumferential face of the latch portion to be opposed to an outer circumferential face of the ring and to be contacted with the outer circumferential face of the ring to hold the ring, and a relief area is formed by depressing a portion of each of the inner side wall at an inner circumferential side of the holding face.
