Gates 5K425AP Micro-V Serpentine Belt - 5-Rib 42.5 Inch

The Gates 5K425AP Micro-V Belt is a premium 5-rib serpentine belt designed for reliable power transmission in automotive accessory drive systems. With a 42.5-inch effective length, this belt delivers consistent performance for alternators, water pumps, power steering pumps, air conditioning compressors, and other engine-driven accessories.

Key Features:

• 5-rib K-section profile with truncated rib design for enhanced flexibility on high-speed, small-diameter pulley applications
• Advanced EPDM (ethylene propylene diene monomer) construction provides superior heat resistance up to 284°F (140°C)
• Aramid fiber tensile cords deliver exceptional strength and minimal stretch for consistent tension
• Precision-formed ribs ensure optimal belt-to-pulley contact, reducing slippage and noise
• Shortened rib profile prevents bottoming out in sheave grooves and tolerates debris
• Oil, heat, and ozone resistant materials for extended service life

Specifications:

• Effective Length: 42.5 inches
• Number of Ribs: 5
• Belt Type: K-section Micro-V
• Material: EPDM with Aramid tensile cords

Gates Micro-V belts are engineered to meet or exceed OEM specifications, providing the quiet operation and long-lasting durability technicians trust. The advanced construction eliminates belt noise, reduces tension loss, and delivers peak performance in demanding serpentine drive applications.
