Poly Chain GT Carbon Belts — Nothing Tougher.

Give yourself a competitive advantage by designing in the Gates Poly Chain GT Carbon drive system instead of roller chain in your next power tran***ission application.

The patented use of Carbon Fiber as the tensile cord provides increased horsepower rating for greater power density and compactness and increased flexibility, allowing the use of backside idlers. When combined with Gates Poly Chain GT2 sprockets, you h***e a lightweight, long-lasting, maintenance-free system that’s more than a match for roller chain.

Features/Advantages

Maintenance-free, clean solution for roller chain drive conversion

Significantly reduces maintenance costs

Equivalent capacity to roller chain drives in the same width

Easy rust-free wash-down with Gates Stainless Steel ha***are

Fast drive conversion payback

Quieter than roller chain drives

Robust carbon tensile cord combines minimal stretch with extraordinary strength and load carrying capacity, while absorbing shock and surge loads.
Durable polyurethane c***truction resists chemicals, oil, pollutants, and abrasion.

Nylon tooth facing reduces friction and eliminates the need for lubrication.

Fully operational in temperature extremes of -65°F to +185°F (-54°C to +85°C).

***ailable in the following pitches: 5 mm, 8 mm, 14 mm.

Also ***ailable in Long Length belting well suited for linear movement, positioning and conveying applicati***.
