The Gates 2/5VX600 Super HC PowerBand V-Belt is a high-performance, industrial-grade belt engineered for demanding power transmission applications. This belt features a 5VX cross-section and measures 60 inches in nominal outside length.
Key Features
- Flex-Bonded Tensile Cords: Vulcanized as a single unit, these cords provide exceptional resistance to tensile and flexing forces, enhancing durability under shock loads.
- Precision-Ground Straight Sidewalls: Ensure uniform wedging action and proper fit within pulley grooves, leading to extended belt life and reduced maintenance.
- Patented Ethylene Compound with Molded Notches: Increases flexibility and transmission efficiency, allowing for more compact and economical drive designs by reducing the size of pulleys, bearings, guards, and mounts.
- PowerBand Construction: Multiple belts function as a single unit, distributing loads evenly and preventing issues like belt whip, turnover, or jumping off the drive.
