Frequently Asked Questions
What is a GATES banded cogged V-belt used for?
A GATES banded cogged V-belt is used in industrial power transmission systems where multiple belts are needed to handle high loads and prevent belt turnover. The banded design keeps ribs aligned, making it ideal for applications like pumps, compressors, and conveyors that experience shock loads or vibration.
What are the specifications of the GATES BX56 banded cogged V-belt?
The GATES BX56 banded cogged V-belt has 2 ribs, a 58-inch outside length, a 1 13/32-inch top width, and a 13/32-inch thickness. It is a BX section belt with manufacturer part number 2/BX56. The cogged design reduces bending resistance for improved efficiency on small-diameter pulleys.
