Product Details

Gates engineered the FleetRunner Heavy-Duty Micro-V belt line to reduce fleet operating costs by extending belt life and maintaining consistent drive performance. The K080806HD uses a heavy-duty V-ribbed construction with EPDM compound and polyester reinforcement to handle accessory drive loads while maintaining flexibility across pulleys. This part number, K080806HD, is a direct-fit style replacement for select Ford truck and van platforms, including Ford E-150 Econoline and Ford F-250 Super Duty applications that are listed without air conditioning.

This part cross-references Bando 8PK2045 and Dayco 5080805 for the same application.

Common Problems This Belt Can Address

• Squealing or chirping from a worn accessory drive belt
• Cracking, glazing, or rib wear on the existing serpentine belt
• Loss of belt tracking caused by reduced belt stability
• Drive-system downtime from a belt that no longer maintains proper tension and grip
• Replacement needs on Ford E-Series and Super Duty models without A/C

Installation Notes

Verify engine accessory routing and confirm the vehicle is listed without air conditioning before ordering. Match the 8-rib K-section profile, effective length, and outside circumference to the original belt specification. Inspect pulleys, tensioners, and idlers for wear before installation, since pulley damage can shorten belt life and affect tracking.

Quality Assurance
