The Gates B 185 PowerBand is a banded V-belt from the Hi-Power PowerBand series, with a length of 4699 mm. When you need to replace a belt on a multi-groove drive, the most reliable method is to match the part number on the existing belt. This page gives you the details to confirm you are specifying the same belt.
To match this belt to the one being replaced, check the marking on the back of the old belt. You are looking for the part number B 185 PowerBand, along with the series name Hi-Power PowerBand. Because banded V-belts are built as a set of V-belts joined by a top band, the part number identifies both the cross-section and the length. The length for this belt is 4699 mm. Confirm that the number on your old belt matches exactly before ordering.
If the marking is worn or unreadable, measure the outside length of the old belt and compare it to 4699 mm. Also note the cross-section, which in this case is a B profile. The B 185 PowerBand is a banded V-belt, so it is used where multiple belts run in parallel and must stay aligned. Replacing a banded belt with individual belts can lead to uneven tension and premature failure, so it is best to replace with the same banded construction.
When you request a quote, send the full part number B 185 PowerBand and the length 4699 mm. If you have the old belt, a photo of the back marking helps confirm the match. Our team can verify the details and help you source the correct belt for your drive.
