The Gates B 68 PowerBand is a banded V-belt from the Hi-Power PowerBand series, listed at 1727 mm. This page covers how to match it to the belt being replaced. For a quote, send the part number by WhatsApp or email.
Start with the marking on the back of the old belt. Confirm it reads B 68 PowerBand and that the belt is a banded V-belt, not a single V-belt or a different profile. Measure the length and compare it with the 1727 mm listed for this belt. If the marking is worn off, note the drive it came from and the number of ribs in the band.
Check the drive before ordering. Look for worn sheave grooves, misalignment, or damaged ribs that may have caused the original belt to fail. Replace banded belts as a complete unit; do not mix a new banded belt with old belts on the same drive. If the old belt is a different brand or the marking is unclear, send the part number you have and the team can help confirm the right belt or suggest an equivalent.
MR Industrial Accessories LLC supplies industrial belts to customers in the United States, Canada, Mexico and South America. Send the part number, the marking from the old belt, or a photo of the drive by WhatsApp or email to request a quote.

Frequently asked questions
- How do I confirm the Gates B 68 PowerBand is the right replacement?
- Match the marking on the back of the old belt to B 68 PowerBand and confirm the length against the 1727 mm listed. Also check that the old belt is a banded V-belt and count the ribs in the band.
- Can I replace just one belt in a banded set?
- No. Banded V-belts are replaced as a complete unit. Mixing a new banded belt with old belts on the same drive can cause uneven tension and premature failure.
- What should I send to request a quote?
- Send the part number B 68 PowerBand by WhatsApp or email. If the marking is not clear, include the belt marking from the old belt or a photo of the drive so the team can help confirm the right belt or suggest an equivalent.
