In this paper. A new formula for primary and secondary thrust of metal belt CVT is proposed considering the variation of band tension and block compression. For secondary thrust. Effective friction coefficient is introduced considering the effect of flange deflection. It is seen that simulation results by new formula agree well with the experimental results. The new formula can be used in design of the primary and secondary thrust for CVT.<br/>
