Gates Hi-Power PowerBand V-Belt construction allows multiple belts to function as a single unit, with even load distribution and each strand fitting securely in the sheave groove. It offers a solution for drives where single belts vibrate, turn over or jump off the pulleys. They consist of several V-Belts joined by a permanent, high-strength tie band offering a tougher more stable solution compared to a single belt.
- Flex-bonded tensile cords are vulcanized as one solid unit making the belt highly resistant to tensile and flexing forces, fatigue and shock loads.
- Strong band controls belt-to-belt distance and prevents sideways bending.
- Elastomeric compound protects the belt against heat, ozone, and sunlight.
Featuring a composite, multi-purpose construction, Gates® Hi-Power® II PowerBand® belts resist oil and heat, ozone, sunlight, weather, and aging. We've even engineered the EPDM belt material to combat self-igniting, meaning your belt won't catch fire from heat build-up, even with severe slippage.
EXCELLENT PERFORMANCE WITH PULSATING LOADS.
Hi-Power® II PowerBand® belts are especially developed for high-power drives subjected to pulsating loads. The PowerBand® technology consists of several V-belts joined by a permanent, high strength tie band, thus providing more powerful, tougher performance than the sum of the belts measured separately.
FEATURES & BENEFITS
- 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.
- The Flex-Weave® Cover is a patented fabric construction for longer cover life, providing extended protection to the belt core from oil, dirt and heat.
- Concave sidewalls provide proper cord support and full contact with the sheave-groove for equal loading and uniform wear.
- Gates® Curves provide full contact with pulley grooves for uniform loading of cords, uniform wear and increased belt life.
- The Tie Band assures high lateral rigidity, guiding the belt in a straight line and preventing it from coming off the drive.
- Static conductive (ISO 1813) and can as such be used in the conditions described in the Directive 2014/34/EU-ATEX.
- Savings in drive space and weight due to high transmission efficiency.
- High stability and smooth running on the toughest drives.
- Temperature Range: -22°F to +140°F (-30°C to +60°C).
- Important design economies possible.
- Available on demand in Matched sets.
- Better resistance to vibrations.
- REACH and RoHS 2 compliant.
MARKETS & APPLICATIONS
Recommended for drives where single belts vibrate, turn over, or jump off the drive.
Custom “Made-To-Order” Belt Lengths
Made-to-orders belts are available in any size from: A (38 to 212 inches), B (35 to 663 inches), C (56 to 662 inches), and D (126 to 665 inches). Check with a Sales Representative for minimum order quantity and manufacturing lead times.
PowerBand V-Belt NOTES
Belt Part Number is constructed by placing the (#) number of strands required followed by a (/) slash in front of the belt size. For example; 2/B240 represents an A240 with 2 joined strands. Belt product number is 8 or 9 digits constructed of product series prefix, number of strands, and belt length. For example, 9093-2240 represents an “A” section PowerBand (9093) with 2 strands (2) that is 241 inches (240) long.
