Ridiculously Powerful Belts

Backed by industry-leading technology, Gates high-performing synchronous belts and V-belts offer maximum power and take up minimal space. Skinnier drives reduce overhung load, increase bearing life and cut maintenance time for significant cost savings.

Start doing more with less:

Is your belt drive more than two inches wide?

Gates can typically replace your current belt drive with a Poly Chain^® GT^® Carbon^™ synchronous drive or Gates Predator^® V-Belt in half the width while reducing overhung load and increasing efficiency. The belts' premium tensile cords provide ridiculous power, eliminating the need for retensioning and increasing uptime.

Can you see the drive shaft?

If there isn't any shaft length remaining once you've installed your pulley, you may have an overhung load problem. Gates premium synchronous belts and V-belts can reduce the width and weight of your drive eliminating overhung load, and minimizing bearing replacement and downtime costs.

Are you experiencing frequent downtime?

The costs of frequently replacing bearings or belts can add up quickly. Save more than you think by switching your current belts to Gates higher power density belts and run narrower pulleys. Gates Predator^® V-belts and Poly Chain^® GT^® Carbon^™ belts handle the same power as competitors' belts that are twice as wide.
