Description
The Gates 3/B111 is a heavy-duty banded V-belt engineered for high-load, high-vibration drive applications commonly found in commercial HVAC systems, air handlers, blowers, and industrial equipment. By joining three individual B-section belts into a single unified band, this belt eliminates belt whip, turnover, and slippage — problems that can plague conventional single-belt drives under shock loads or pulsating torque conditions.
Product Overview
Banded (joined) V-belts are the preferred solution when standard V-belts tend to roll or flip in the groove, or when the drive requires multiple belts running in perfect synchrony. The rigid tie band keeps all three strands in precise alignment, extending belt and sheave life while reducing maintenance downtime.
Key Features
- 3-band joined construction for maximum stability and load sharing
- B-section profile for compatibility with standard B-groove sheaves and pulleys
- 111″ outside circumference for precise drive sizing
- Eliminates belt whip, rollover, and individual belt matching concerns
- Oil- and heat-resistant compound for extended service life in HVAC environments
- Gates PowerBand® construction with high-strength tensile cords
- Suitable for high-torque, pulsating, and shock-load drive applications
Typical Applications
- Commercial air handlers and blower drives
- Centrifugal fans and exhaust systems
- Industrial compressors and pumps
- HVAC equipment requiring multi-belt drive configurations
