Certain vehicle engine applications require specific belt constructions, such as aramid tensile cord, to provide long belt life and eliminate noise and vibration that are inherent on these drives.
Utilizing this same technology for the Aftermarket, Gates offers an aramid cord belt for these specified vehicles. This construction matches the OEM to assure a quiet and smooth functioning belt, with the same performance and durability as the OEM part.
