Gates Predator® V Belts are the market’s leading V Belts. They are unique and unrivalled in their extreme robustness and high load carrying capability.
They are excellent problem solvers that perform well in harsh environments and in extremely demanding applications where standard V Belts have performance issues.
The Gates Predator® difference is in the construction: having the highest power density of any V Belt and half the stretch of standard Gates belts because of the use of high strength, high modulus aramid tensile cords.
**NOTE: For Multiple Belt Predator® Drives, Matched Sets MUST Be Ordered**
Dimensions
Top Width: 7/8" (22mm)
Depth: 17/32” (14mm)
Length: Measured in Inches According to the Internal Length (Circumference) as designated by the Product name – eg. a CP81 has an Internal Circumference of 81” (2,057mm)
Construction
- Classical and Narrow cross-sections.
- Flex bonded aramid tensile cords.
- Double layer bare back fabric cover.
- Fibre-loaded compound for improved belt stability.
- Gates Curves provide full contact with pulley grooves for uniform loading of cords, uniform wear and
- Increased belt life.
- Non self-igniting - the belt will not catch fire from heat build-up, even with severe slippage.
Advantages
