Predator™ v-belts can handle up to 2.2 times more power the equivalent size standard v-belt. A more compact drive that weighs less, puts less strain on costlier components, and uses fewer belts. All of which saves you money. See the difference in the following examples:
Compared with standard v-belt drives, the compact Predator™ drive provides greater power capacity in half the width and weight, at a third of the cost, with no change in shaft loads. Predator™ V-belts provide the ideal solution to replace costly, made to order, 8V belt drive pulleys with standard SPB or SPC.
All Gates® Predator™ v-belts feature:
Bareback Cover
Reduce friction and heat buildup under shock loads and slippage with abrasive and puncture- resistant bareback (non-rubber) double layer fabric cover.
Aramid Tensile Cords
Minimal need for re-tensioning due to stronger-than-steel aramid fibre or Kevlar® tensile cords that reduce belt stretch by 50% over standard v-belts.
Premium Compound
Oil and heat resistant chloroprene compound body, rated for 82°C, outperforms other rubbers in harsh operating conditions.
Gates® Curves
Extend drive life with the patented curved sidewall that allows belt to enter the sheave groove cleanly and smoothly, reducing the sidewall wear on belt and sheave.
