Description
Gates Truflex V-Belts are engineered for light-duty belt drives, delivering reliable power transfer in tight spaces. Designed for small-diameter sheaves and backside idler applications, they combine flexibility, durability, and contaminant resistance for automotive auxiliaries and household equipment.
- Thin profile for small-diameter sheaves: Slim silhouette and lowered cord positioning optimize engagement on compact pulleys and backside idlers, improving performance in tight-drive layouts.
- Flex-bonded cords: Cords are strongly bonded to the belt body to ensure even load distribution and to absorb bending stress without cord deterioration, extending belt life.
- Gates Curves for optimal cord support: Curved cord guidance provides full contact with the groove for uniform loading and reduced wear over time.
- Flex-Weave oil and heat resistant cover: Tough exterior protects the belt core from oil, heat, and harsh environments, enhancing durability in real-world conditions.
- Wide range of ideal applications: Perfect for auxiliary automotive tasks (electric windows, windshield wipers, central locking), drive pumps, power tools, and domestic appliances; suitable for FHP motors and other light-duty drives.
- Standards & compliance: Meets ARPM/RMA IP-3-2 oil and heat resistance standards and IP-3-3 static conductivity requirements; REACH and RoHS 2 compliant.
- Unit specs: Thin profile with lower cord positioning; Flex-bonded cords; Flex-Weave cover; ARPM/RMA IP-3-2/IP-3-3 compliance; REACH and RoHS 2 compliant.
Gates Truflex V-Belts help you maximize efficiency and minimize maintenance in everyday systems. The combination of a slim profile, durable bonding, and robust oil/heat resistance translates to steadier operation, longer belt life, and fewer mid-life adjustments in applications like electric windows, wipers, central locking, drive pumps, and other light-duty equipment. With proven compliance to industry standards and environmental regulations, these belts offer a dependable, long-lasting solution for automotive and household drive systems.
