Gates Predator PowerBand®

The Gates Predator® V-belt has become established as the leading belt model on the market. It is characterised by its unique robustness and high durability, and is excellently suited to high-stress conditions of use and areas of application in which standard V-belts reach the limits of their capacity. Wherever standard V-belts are unable to meet requirements, the Gates Predator® V-belts are your belt of choice! The Predator® belt differs from standard V-belts in terms of its structure: it is the V-belt with the highest power transfer and the lowest expansion on the market, since low-expansion, high-performance aramid cords are used.

Gates Predator® V-belts are available both as Powerband® banded V-belts and as individual belts with SPBP, SPCP, 9JP, 15JP and 8VP profiles.


Structural features:

  • aramid cords offer excellent rigidity and durability with minimal expansion
  • double fabric layer offers unusually high abrasion and wear resistance A specially treated, extra-strong fabric layer makes the belt resistant to slippage and shear forces under maximum loads
  • low thermal development
  • can also withstand contamination by foreign bodies
  • excellent oil- and heat resistance

Additional advantages:

  • at least 40 % higher performance values than standard structure V-belts
  • no re-tightening required      
  • less maintenance, fewer standstill times       
  • excellently suited for problematic applications
