Gates Super HC Molded Notch Belt

By Gates

The Gates Super HC Molded Notch Belt is engineered for high-speed, high-load applications where space and weight constraints are a concern. Featuring advanced notch design, precision engineering, and superior flex-bonded tensile cords, this belt delivers up to three times the horsepower of comparably sized classical V-belts. Its compact profile and optimized efficiency make it ideal for industrial heavy-duty drives that demand maximum power transmission in minimal space.

Features

  • High Horsepower in a Compact Design: The Super HC® Molded Notch Belt transmits up to three times more power than standard V-belts, making it the perfect solution for space-constrained applications requiring high efficiency and durability. Its optimized narrow profile allows for smaller pulleys and more compact drive designs, reducing overall system size and cost.
  • Superior Load-Carrying & Shock Resistance: Built with flex-bonded tensile cords, this belt is vulcanized as a single unit, ensuring exceptional resistance to tension, flexing forces, and shock loads. This results in minimal stretch, increased stability, and longer belt life even under the toughest industrial conditions.
  • Molded Notches for Reduced Stress: The notched design helps distribute bending and thermal stresses more evenly, leading to smoother operation, reduced wear, and improved energy efficiency. These notches also allow for greater flexibility, making the belt ideal for smaller pulley diameters and high-speed drives.
  • Rugged Flex-Weave® Cover for Maximum Protection: A proprietary Flex-Weave® outer cover shields the belt’s core from oil, dirt, heat, and other contaminants, preventing premature wear and extending service life. The elastomeric compound also ensures resistance to ozone, sunlight, and extreme temperatures.
