Gates A85 Hi-Power II Classical V-Belt Accessory Drive Belt - 87 Inch

The Gates A85 Hi-Power II V-Belt is a heavy-duty classical wrapped V-belt designed for reliable power transmission in industrial and agricultural applications. This A-section belt features an 87-inch outside circumference (85-inch inside circumference) and is built to deliver superior performance in demanding operating environments.

Key Features:

• EPDM rubber construction provides excellent resistance to weathering, oils, water, heat, ozone, and sunlight
• Flex-Weave cover features patented single-layer fabric construction for extended cover life and protection against oil, dirt, and heat
• Flex-bonded polyester cords are vulcanized to the belt body for uniform load distribution and superior resistance to bending stress without cord deterioration
• Arched top profile prevents "dishing" and distortion of the tensile section for longer belt life
• Concave sidewalls and Gates Curves provide full sheave contact for uniform loading, even wear, and reduced pulley wear
• Part of Gates V80 matching system—ensures precise matching when used in multiple-belt drives for higher horsepower applications
• Meets RMA IP-3-2 oil and heat resistance standards and IP-3-3 static conductivity requirements
• REACH and RoHS 2 compliant

Specifications:

• Section: A (Classical)
• Outside Circumference: 87 inches
• Top Width: 1/2 inch (0.5")
• Belt Height: 5/16 inch (0.312")
• Temperature Range: -22°F to +140°F (-30°C to +60°C)
• Gates Product Number: 9002-2085

Suitable for use in HVAC systems, conveyor systems, centrifugal pumps, air compressors, crushers, and other industrial power transmission applications. Can be used individually or in matched sets for multiple-belt drives. The composite multi-purpose construction reduces flex fatigue while superior length stability minimizes the need for re-tensioning during service.
