Out of stock
This is the PowerGrip GT4 Rubber Synchronous Belt (8MGT).
This Gates Powergrip timing belt is the OE-quality replacement for automotive engine valve-train and camshaft timing systems. Manufactured in HNBR (nitrile rubber) with high-tensile glass fibre cord, Gates Powergrip belts are designed to run for the full OE service interval without stretching or losing tooth form.
Where this product is used
Gates Powergrip timing belts and tensioners serve both automotive and industrial synchronous drive applications. Typical end uses include:
- Automotive engine valve-train and camshaft timing systems requiring OE-level precision and service life
- Industrial synchronous drives on CNC machines, robotics, conveyors and high-speed indexing equipment
- Engine timing kits and scheduled maintenance for fleet vehicles, trucks and passenger cars
Key specifications
| Belt Section | 8MGT |
| Series | Powergrip |
| Drive Type | Industrial Synchronous |
Selecting the right option
For automotive Powergrip timing belts and tensioners, select by vehicle make, model, engine code and year. Always replace the belt and tensioner together — mixing service lives defeats the purpose of a timing belt kit. For industrial synchronous belts, select by pitch (3MGT, 5MGT, 8MGT, 14MGT for Poly Chain GT Carbon; 3M, 5M, 8M for HTD) and belt width. Poly Chain GT Carbon belts deliver significantly higher power ratings in the same space envelope as standard HTD belts — worth specifying on any new drive design or where a standard HTD is failing ahead of schedule.
