Gates T145RB Blue Racing High-Performance Timing Belt

The Gates T145RB is a high-performance racing timing belt engineered for demanding, high-horsepower applications. Built from HNBR (Hydrogenated Nitrile Butadiene Rubber) elastomeric composites, this belt delivers up to 300% more strength than standard OEM timing belts while offering up to three times the heat resistance — making it an ideal upgrade for performance and competition builds, including interference engines.

The signature blue color is more than an aesthetic choice; it's a mark of Gates' racing-grade engineering, designed to perform where stock belts fall short.

Key Features:

• Wear-Resistant Teeth: High-saturation HNBR elastomeric compound with aramid fiber reinforcement provides exceptional durability and outstanding heat resistance under sustained high-RPM loads.
• Reinforced Tooth Jacket: A durable nylon fiber tooth jacket adds extra wear resistance and effectively doubles tooth strength compared to standard belts.
• Super-Strong Tensile Cord: Premium high-strength glass fiber tensile cords deliver superior load-bearing capability and dimensional stability under stress.
• Heat Resistant Construction: Engineered to withstand the extreme thermal environment of high-performance engines, including turbocharged and supercharged applications.
• Interference Engine Compatible: Robust construction provides the reliability needed to protect interference engines where timing failure is catastrophic.

The Gates T145RB Blue Racing Timing Belt is the go-to choice for motorsport enthusiasts and performance engine builders who demand more from their valvetrain components. Backed by Gates' decades of belt engineering expertise, this belt is a direct step up from the standard Gates T145 timing belt.
