This is a Gates Multi-Speed variable speed belt, part number 47x2240, with a length of 2240 mm. Variable speed belts run in adjustable-pitch drives, where the sheave faces move to change the effective diameter and the driven speed. Confirm the belt against the drive before ordering.

Start with the belt you are replacing. Read the marking on the back of the old belt and compare it with the part number on this page. If the marking is worn off, measure the outside length and compare it with the 2240 mm length given here, and check the cross section against the sheave groove.

Variable speed belts are used on equipment where speed is set by the drive rather than by a fixed ratio. Because the belt rides in adjustable sheaves, the section and length have to match the drive. A belt that is close but not the same can sit at the wrong height in the groove and change how the drive shifts.

If the number on the old belt does not match or you are unsure of the section, send the part number, the machine make and model, and a photo of the belt and the sheave to our team. We carry Gates belts and can confirm the right belt or suggest an equivalent.
