Gates 40G4683 Automatic Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT) Belt - Drive Belt

G-Force CVT Belt for Power Sport Use

The Gates G-Force CVT Belt 40G4683 is a power sport CVT belt built for demanding trail and work use on vehicles with engines under 800cc. It uses an aramid cord, chloroprene belt material, and a double-notched construction to support consistent operation in continuously variable transmissions.

Gates G-Force WorkHorse belt technology is aimed at hard-use CVT applications where belt durability and stable power transfer matter. If you are servicing a UTV or similar power sport vehicle, the 40G4683 is built around OE performance expectations and the dimensions needed for proper CVT operation.

Product Details

The Gates 40G4683 CVT belt is engineered for vehicles that rely on a continuously variable transmission to manage engine speed and drive ratio. Its 48-inch outside circumference and 1.406-inch top width are critical dimensions for proper belt tracking and engagement in the CVT system. The aramid cord reinforcement and double-notched design support the belt structure under load, while the chloroprene construction is suited to the heat and friction common in power sport drivetrains.

This part cross-references Dayco XTX5017 for the same application. For buyers searching Gates 40G4683, Gates 40C4683, or Gates 40R4683, this belt is part of the same Gates CVT family and is commonly referenced in power sport belt replacement searches.

What It Helps Address

• Slipping or glazed CVT belt surfaces
• Loss of drive response under load
• Noise or vibration from a worn transmission belt
• Incorrect belt dimensions during CVT service
• Reduced belt life in hard-use trail or work conditions

Installation Notes

Verify the belt dimensions, section designation, and CVT application before installation. Measure the existing belt and compare the top width and outside circumference to the 40G4683 specifications. Inspect the pulleys, clutch surfaces, and transmission housing for wear or contamination before fitting the new belt. Proper CVT setup and alignment are important for belt life and drivability.

Compatible With select power sport CVT applications, including vehicles searched by make/model terms such as UTV and similar small-displacement CVT platforms under 800cc. For fitment-specific searches, confirm the exact application before ordering the Gates 40G4683.

Quality Assurance

Gates manufactures drivetrain components with OE performance standards in mind, and the G-Force WorkHorse belt line is positioned for demanding CVT service. The 40G4683 is built to the listed specifications for consistent replacement selection in power sport transmission maintenance.
