V-Belts Gates is the world's
largest manufacturer of power transmission belts for problem solving
applications. Gates product line covers heavy-duty and light-duty belts, and
products for specialty drives
V Belt Overview
V Belt Product Overview shows why Gates is the world's largest maker of
power transmission belts. More Gates belts are sold in the industrial market
than any other brand.
Predator® The most aggressive V-belt ever
made for shock-loaded applications.
Micro-V® Gates Micro-V®
Belts outperform other V-ribbed belts because they are truncated (shorter). This
shorter profile gives the new Micro-V® Belts increased flexibility, reduced heat
buildup and allows them to operate at extra high speeds on smaller diameter
sheaves.
Two more advantages
of the truncated are:
(1) the belt does not bottom in the sheave.
(2) the
belt can better tolerate debris in the sheave groove.
They are extremely smooth
running and highly resistant to oil, heat and other adverse
conditions.
Three cross
sections are available for industrial applications: J, L and
M.
Truflex & Power Rated V BELTS FOR BACK IDLER AND
CLUTCHING APPLICATIONS
Polyflex® JB® Gates Polyflex® JB® belts
transmit greater loads at higher speeds in less space!
Power Band®
Belts Power Band belts were developed by Gates for drives subjected to
pulsating loads, shock loads or extreme vibrations where single belts could flip
over on the pulleys. A high-strength tie band permanently joins two or more
belts to provide lateral rigidity. This keeps the belts running in a strait line
in the pulley grooves.
Metric Power™ Gates Metric Power™
belts are designed to replace OEM components on imported, speed-sensitive
machinery typically used in the textile, packaging, conveyor, food processing
and machine tool industries.
Power Cable® Previously recommended
by Gates for the toughest shock load applications, Power Cable belts have
recently been replaced by Predator® Singles
Spliced Belting Used
on drives with little or no take-up, or as an emergency belt
replacement.
Belting is sold on
reels in standard V-Belt cross sections. Ends are spliced with fasteners that
require special assembly tools. Always use the correct fasteners with the
correct belt type and cross section.
Nu-T-Link*, a new,
high performance spliced belt, is also available for use as emergency belting,
and for drives where conditions are detrimental to rubber
belts.
Multi-Speed Multi-Speed belts have a distinct shape.
Multi-Speed belt top widths are usually greater than their thickness. This
permits a greater range of speed ratios than standard belts. usually cogged or
notched on the underside, Multi-Speed belts are specified for equipment which
require changes in driveN speed during operation.
Multi-Speed belts
are specified by Top Width, Outside Circumference, and the required Groove
Angle. The groove angle can be measured from the drive
pulleys.
