Product details:
This Gates Power Curve belt is a power transmission V-belt for conveyor turns in which belts undergo varying degrees of transverse bending. It is made of EPDM (ethylene propylene diene monomer) rubber for resistance to weathering, oils, water, and some solvents. The flex-weave cover increases flexibility for reduced bending stress and longer life. Its concave sidewalls wedge into the sheave for even distribution of wear and reduced slipping. It has under cord construction for increased flexibility. This V-belt meets RMA oil and heat resistance standards and static conductivity requirements and is suitable for use with power turn conveyor beds and manufacturing conveyors.V-belts, also calledfan belts in automotive applications, link two or more rotating shafts to transmit power in a drive system. The trapezoidal shape of the belt's cross section wedges into the groove of a similarly shaped sheave or pulley to provide traction and alignment. This wedging action increases as the load increases, providing higher torque transmission and minimal slippage. V-belts are standard for belt-driven power transmission and can be used in single- or multi-belt systems for increased carrying power. They are found in drive systems in the automotive, agricultural, textile, printing, mining, and office equipment industries, among others.Gates manufactures power transmission and fluid transfer components and systems. The company, founded in 1917, is headquartered in Denver, CO.
