Description
The Gates 4/B158 is a four-rib banded Gripband V-belt engineered for demanding multi-belt drive applications in HVAC and industrial equipment. By joining four B-section belts into a single banded unit, this belt eliminates the belt rollover, whipping, and vibration that can plague conventional matched-set installations — delivering consistent power transmission and extended service life.
Product Overview
The Gripband design features a reinforced top band that ties the individual ribs together, keeping them tracking true even under heavy loads, shock loads, or pulsating drive conditions. This makes the 4/B158 an ideal replacement for OEM multi-belt drive systems on air handlers, blowers, fans, and compressors.
