Gates synchronous belts
Antistatic power transmission belts are a must in volatile environments. Power transmission belts that meet the ISO 9563 standard for static conductivity are only required to meet that level when new. As soon as the belts are in use, their antistatic properties decrease – dramatically.
Now you have a safer – and stronger – option. Gates Poly Chain Carbon Volt belts deliver the power and performance you expect only from a Gates Poly Chain belt system, as well as an industry-leading reliable dissipation of electrostatic charges.
Gates Poly Chain Carbon Volt belts have proven to maintain static conductivity to ISO 9563 levels many times longer than the competition. What does this mean for you? Increased safety, lower risk, peace of mind. Additionally, the power of Poly Chain systems means you now have the opportunity for higher horsepower, reduced drive size and component cost.
Gates Heavy-Duty V-Belts
Constructed with Gates proprietary construction, this belt has a superior combination of flex and load carrying capacity, as well as transmitting more horsepower than the classical cross sections in the same amount of drive space. Markets/Applications Suitable for all industrial applications, particularly where space, weight and horsepower capacity are critical.
Features/Advantages
Notches molded into the belt during manufacturing make this belt well suited for drives with smaller diameter sheaves.
Belt Edge is machined for even sheave groove contact resulting in less slip and wear.
Flex-Bonded Cords are strongly bonded to the body of the belt resulting in equal load distribution and the absorption of bending stress without cord deterioration.
Gates Light-Duty V-Belts
Unique 60° angle polyurethane construction transmits greater loads at higher speeds in less space than conventional V-belts.
Markets/Applications
A partial listing of applications include machine tools, computer peripherals, medical equipment, library equipment, small appliances, blower drives and woodworking machines.
Features/Advantages
High Modulus Polyurethane compound resists fatigue, wear, ozone, and most environmental conditions.
Precise casting method eliminates layers and overlaps for smooth running and low vibration.
Ribbed backing provides greater lateral stability and relieves bending stress.
Gates Synchronous Sprockets
Markets/Applications
Use with Poly Chain GT2, Poly Chain GT or Poly Chain GT Carbon™ Belts.
Features/Advantages
Full split in bushing allows easy installation and removal.
Precise sprocket design produces positive, press fit to shaft.
Smaller, narrower sprockets save shaft space, keep the load closer to bearing and extend life of reducer.
Poly Chain GT2 sprockets keep overhung load below manufacturers recommendation.
Sprockets are precision manufactured and static balanced.
Gates V-Belt Sheaves
Markets/Applications
Use with Hi-Power II, Tri-Power, Dubl-V, Power Curve, PowerBack and classical section PowerBand belts.
Features/Advantages
Full split in bushing allows easy installation and removal.
Precise sheave design produces positive, press fit to shaft.
Precision manufactured and static balanced.
Super HC V-Belt Sheaves
Markets/Applications
Use with Super HC and Super HC PowerBand® belts.
Features/Advantages
Full split in bushing allows easy installation and removal.
Precise sheave design produces positive, press fit to shaft.
Narrower sheave design is precision manufactured, static balanced and transmits higher horsepower.
