Description
GATES B 285 belongs to v-belt, part of our Power transmission range. Tell us how many you need by WhatsApp or email and we'll get back to you promptly with a quote for B 285 and any equivalents.
The Gates Hi-Power II B 285 is a classical V-belt in the B profile, with a length of 7264.4 mm, a top width of 17 mm and a height of 11 mm. Before you fit it, take a close look at the drive and the sheaves so the new belt goes onto a sound system.
Inspect each sheave groove for wear, rust, burrs and embedded debris, since a rough or worn groove will shorten the life of any belt you install. Check that the sheaves are aligned and that the grooves are free of oil or grease. Confirm the belt sits correctly in the groove rather than riding on the bottom, and verify the angle: this belt is built at 40 degrees.
Check the condition of the drive as a whole. Look at the bearings, the shafting and the guard, and make sure nothing rubs or interferes along the belt run. If the drive uses more than one belt, replace the full set at the same time so the load is shared evenly. The same size is also listed under Optibelt B 285.
The B profile and the 7264.4 mm length are the two values to match against the belt you are removing. Read the marking on the back of the old belt and compare it with the part number on this page. If you need help confirming the right belt or an equivalent, send the part number and the drive details to our team by WhatsApp or email for a quote.
