Product Details

The Gates Premium OE Micro-V Belt line focuses on OE-matched size, construction, and material selection for accessory drive service. The 7PK2217 follows the K-section, 7-rib profile used on many Nissan and Suzuki applications, making it a direct-fit replacement for vehicles that require this exact belt specification. If you are servicing a Nissan Frontier serpentine belt, Nissan Xterra drive belt, or Nissan Pathfinder accessory belt application, this part number is the correct OE-style reference to verify against the original belt.

This part cross-references Bando 7PK2217 for the same application.
