This Gates Multi-Speed belt is a variable speed belt with a 1600 mm length. It is used on drives where the pulley sheaves change diameter to vary speed, such as variable-pitch driven equipment. Confirm fit by matching the belt's profile and length to the drive's requirements.
Variable speed belts run in adjustable sheaves that open and close to change the effective diameter. The 28x1600 belt is identified by its profile and 1600 mm length. Before ordering, check the old belt's marking and measure the length to confirm the replacement matches.
Inspect the sheaves for wear, misalignment, or oil contamination when replacing a variable speed belt. A worn sheave face can cause the new belt to run at the wrong width or slip. If the drive uses multiple belts, replace them as a set to keep loads even.
To request a quote, send the part number 28x1600, the belt marking, and the drive details. Our team can confirm the belt or suggest an equivalent based on the profile and length you provide.

Frequently asked questions
- How do I confirm the Gates 28x1600 fits my drive?
- Match the profile and the 1600 mm length to the belt you are replacing. Check the old belt's back marking and measure its length. If you are unsure, send the drive information and we can help confirm.
- What should I check on the sheaves when replacing a variable speed belt?
- Look for wear, scoring, or oil on the sheave faces. Worn or misaligned sheaves can cause the new belt to slip or wear quickly. Clean and inspect the sheaves before installing the replacement.
- Can I replace just one belt in a multi-belt drive?
- If the drive uses more than one belt, replace all belts as a set. Mixing a new belt with used belts can cause uneven loading and premature failure. Order the same quantity and part number for each position.
