G-Force Carbon Cord CVT Belt Overview
The Gates G-Force Carbon Cord CVT Belt, part number 13C3218, is a power sport high-performance CVT belt built for automatic continuously variable transmissions. It uses carbon tensile cord, Neoprene and aramid fiber-loaded rubber, and a double-notched construction to support strong belt control and extended service life.
For riders and drivers searching for a Gates CVT belt for Polaris RZR, Can-Am Maverick, or similar powersport applications, 13C3218 is an OE-improved replacement built around Gates G-Force Carbon Cord technology.
Key Features
- Carbon tensile cord for high modulus and strong belt stability
- Double-notched construction for improved flexibility in CVT operation
- Chloroprene belt material with a black finish
- Fabric bottom and notched design for consistent engagement
- OE Improved rating for applications that call for upgraded belt performance
- Top width: 1.125 in. (29 mm)
- Outside circumference: 33.375 in. (848 mm)
- Cross section designation: RVS-R
Product Details
Gates developed the G-Force Carbon Cord CVT Belt line around carbon tensile cords and a specially formulated adhesion gum to help reduce edge cord pullout and support longer belt life. This 13C3218 belt follows that design with a high-performance rubber compound and aramid fiber reinforcement for demanding CVT service. It is a direct-fit style replacement for select powersport automatic CVT systems where the specified width, circumference, and section match the original belt requirements.
This part cross-references Dayco HP2000 and XTX2240 for the same application.
What This Belt Helps Address
- Slipping or inconsistent CVT belt engagement
- Loss of belt control under load
- Premature edge wear from cord pullout
- Reduced belt life from heat and repeated CVT cycling
- Incorrect belt dimensions during replacement service
Installation Notes and Tips
Verify the required top width, outside circumference, and section designation before installation. Match the replacement belt to the vehicle’s CVT specification and inspect pulleys, clutch faces, and belt alignment at the same time. For fitment-based searches, this Gates CVT belt is commonly referenced for powersport applications such as Polaris RZR and Can-Am Maverick, but final compatibility should always follow the exact belt size and OE specification.
Quality Assurance
Gates builds the G-Force Carbon Cord CVT Belt using OE-style materials and an improved construction approach focused on belt strength, adhesion, and service life. The carbon cord design and adhesion gum formulation are part of Gates’ performance-oriented CVT belt engineering.
