Product Description

The GATES Timing Belt: One Side is a GT Section Timing Belt from the Polychain® GT® Carbon™ series, featuring a curvilinear tooth profile with an 8 mm pitch and 12 mm top width, constructed with nylon. It is identified by Industry Number 8MGT-3280-12 and Manufacturer Part Number 8MGT-3280-12.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the GATES Polychain GT Carbon timing belt used for?

The GATES Polychain® GT® Carbon™ timing belt is used for high-torque synchronous power transmission in industrial machinery, including conveyors, pumps, and packaging equipment. Its curvilinear tooth profile and carbon tensile cords provide high load capacity and low stretch, making it suitable for demanding applications requiring precise timing and durability.

What are the specifications of the GATES 8MGT-3280-12 timing belt?

The GATES 8MGT-3280-12 timing belt has an 8 mm pitch, 12 mm top width, and a curvilinear tooth profile. It is part of the Polychain® GT® Carbon™ series with nylon construction. The belt is single-sided and identified by Industry Number 8MGT-3280-12. These specs ensure compatibility with GT pulleys for high-torque drives.

Where to buy GATES timing belts worldwide?

You can source GATES timing belts, including the 8MGT-3280-12, through 3G Electric, a global industrial equipment distributor. We handle full logistics, customs clearance, and delivery to worldwide destinations. Contact us for availability and lead times; we supply genuine GATES components for industrial applications.

How to select the correct GATES timing belt for an application?

To select the correct GATES timing belt, match the pitch, width, and tooth profile to your pulley system. For the 8MGT-3280-12, verify an 8 mm pitch and 12 mm top width. Ensure the belt length (3280 mm) fits your center distance. Consult GATES design guides for load and speed ratings. 3G Electric can assist with sourcing the right belt.
