Detailed Product Description

The Gates G-Force CVT Belt 26G5407 is specifically designed for automatic continuously variable transmissions (CVT) used in powersport applications. Its double-notched construction allows for increased flexibility and heat dissipation, which is critical for maintaining performance under varying load conditions. The belt’s aramid cord material provides excellent tensile strength and resistance to elongation, ensuring consistent power delivery and durability. The chloroprene belt material offers resistance to heat, oil, and wear, extending the belt’s service life. The fabric bottom enhances grip on the pulleys, reducing slippage and improving transmission efficiency. With a top width of 1.25 inches and an outside circumference of 55.25 inches, this belt fits specific CVT systems requiring the Rvs-r cross section designation.

The G-Force CVT Belt product line by Gates focuses on delivering reliable and durable belts for powersport vehicles, engineered to meet or exceed original equipment performance. This line emphasizes advanced materials and construction techniques to handle the unique demands of powersport transmissions, such as rapid acceleration and variable torque loads.
