550-5M-15 Gates Powergrip HTD Timing Belt

PowerGrip HTD synchronous belts have a larger, more robust curvilinear tooth profile for increased capacity, as compared to other timing belts. Eliminates lubrication and re-tensioning to reduce maintenance and labour required on drives. Fiberglass tensile cord provides high strength, excellent flex life, and high resistance to elongation. Neoprene body provides protection against grime, grease, oil, and moisture. Nylon tooth facing provides a durable wear surface for long service life. Durable elastomeric backing protects against environmental pollution as well as frictional wear if power is transmitted from the back of the belt. 30% increase in horsepower ratings, as compared to traditional timing belts.
