Gates Predator Aramid Belt Narrow Section - SPB Section

Gates Predator V-Belt - Narrow Section

• Gates Predator V-belts are the markets 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 Predator difference is in the construction: having the highest offer 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.

About Predator Matching System

• Predator belts have a matching system which must be used on multiple belt drives.
• This applies to both Single and Powerband versions of Predator belts.
• Predator belts are marked with a match/group number between 46 to 54 and each belt on a drive must have the same match/ group number.
• Each matching number refers to a length tolerance range.
• The limited stretch characteristic of the Predator belts makes it necessary to match them in this way.
• If matched belts are not used then it will severely impact performance and life.

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

Temperature Range

• Range: -35°C to +80°C
