Pioneered by Gates, these "narrow" cross-sections can transmit up to three times the horsepower of the classical cross-sections (A, B, C and D) in the same amount of drive space.
Markets/Applications
Suitable for all industrial applications, particularly where space, weight and horsepower capacity are critical.
Features/Advantages
- Gates Curves provide proper cord support and full contact with the sheaves-groove for uniform wear, and increased belt life.
- The Flex-Bonded Cords are strongly bonded to body of the belt resulting in equal load distribution and the absorption of bending stress without cord deterioration.
- The Flex-Weave® Cover is a patented construction for longer cover life, providing extended proteciton to the core of the belt from oil, dirt and heat.
- Meets RMA oil and heat resistant standards.
- Meets RMA static conductivity requirements.
