GATES TWIN POWER®
DOUBLE SIDED RUBBER SYNCHRONOUS BELT
Due to its double and directly opposite teeth, Twin Power® synchronous belts ensure high loading capacity on contra-rotating drives and ensure smooth running and high flexibility. They are available with the classical trapezoidal tooth profile and also with the unique GT tooth profile. A Twin Power® GT2 belt has twice the power rating of a Twin Power® HTD® belt. It is characterised by extraordinary load-carrying power and high tooth jump resistance ensuring a positive non-slip drive. In addition, the belt runs at very low noise. Twin Power® is available in PowerGrip® GT2 8MGT and 14MGT, HTD® 5M and PowerGrip® XL, L And H pitches.

BENEFITS
- High loading capacity.
- Twin Power® can transmit up to 100% of its maximum
rated load from either side of the belt; alternatively, it
can transmit a load on both sides - provided the sum
of the loads does not exceed the maximum capacity. - Non-slip positive drive.
- Running at low noise.
- Free of lubrication and maintenance.
- Temperature range: -30°C to + 100°C.
