Gates BB168 Hi-Power® II Dubl-V Belt

Engineered for demanding industrial serpentine applications, the Gates BB168 Hi-Power® II Dubl-V Belt offers superior power transmission from both sides of the belt, ideal for drives with rotation reversal and counter-rotating shafts. Its Flex-bonded tensile cords provide exceptional resistance to flexing forces, fatigue, and shock loads, while the durable Flex-Weave® oil and heat-resistant cover ensures longevity in tough environments. This belt meets ARPM/RMA standards for oil and heat resistance, as well as static conductivity requirements, making it suitable for ATEX directive conditions. The Hi-Power® II Dubl-V construction provides added stability and durability for serpentine drives with reverse bends, ensuring uniform loading and increased belt life.
