Synchronous belt GT Carbon™

endlesspolyurethanefor heavy-duty applications

In addition to providing a high quality and technology in drive solutions, Gates also provides you expertise on synchronous drive systems. The Poly Chain® GT Carbon™ is the new polyurethane synchronous belt by Gates, manufactured with patented carbon tensile cord and providing a high torque and low speed drives. Engineers from the materials development department of Gates are the pioneer in high fatigue-resisting carbon fibre tensile cord incorporated into a new polyurethane compound belt. Then the Poly Chain® GT Carbon™ is the most potent synchronous belt in the transmission world, and provide a maintenance-free, energy saving and eco-friendly operation. It is a brilliant substitute to roller chain and gear drives. Construction The construction consists of an elaboration tough and lightweight polyurethane compound. It is resistant face to chemist products and provides the best adhesion with carbon traction cords. The carbon fibre reinforcement brings a high potency and length constancy with improved shock load fatigue resistance and flexibility. The nylon fabric facing acts as a wear resistant surface and protecting teeth. It also keeps frictional losses to the minimum. The new curvilinear tooth profile ameliorates stress distribution and permits higher overall loading. Now also available in two special belt constructions: Poly Chain® GT Carbon™ High Temperature The special polyurethane material brings excellent heat resistance. It permits the Poly Chain® to be totally operational under high temperatures ranging up to 120°C and even up to 140°C during a short time; Poly Chain® GT Carbon™ Hot Oil
