Its notched construction allows for improved flexibility and heat dissipation, which is critical in powersport vehicles that demand smooth and efficient power delivery. The belt’s aramid cords provide exceptional tensile strength, ensuring resistance to stretching and fatigue over time. Constructed from durable chloroprene, the belt withstands harsh operating environments, including exposure to heat and friction. The fabric bottom enhances grip on the pulleys, reducing slippage and contributing to consistent transmission performance. With a top width of 38 mm and an outside circumference of 1283 mm, this belt fits specific CVT systems requiring the Rvs-r cross section designation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eAbout the G-Force CVT Belt Product Line\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe G-Force CVT Belt line by Gates focuses on delivering reliable and durable belts for powersport and automotive CVT applications. This product line emphasizes materials and construction techniques that improve belt life and transmission efficiency.
