Product Details

Gates Racing Micro-V belts are engineered for high-output and forced-induction engines where accessory drive stability matters. This K060338RPM serpentine belt is built with EPDM rubber and aramid cord to handle demanding operating conditions while maintaining the correct rib profile for the accessory drive system. For Acura EL and Honda Civic alternator applications, as well as Porsche 928 alternator fitments, the belt provides the specified length and rib count needed for proper alignment and drive engagement.

This part cross-references Continental 6PK858 and Dayco 5060335 for the same application.
