The Gates Tri-Power BX 205 is a cogged classical V-belt in the BX profile with a length of 5284 mm. Cogged classical belts like this one are used on drives where a standard wrapped belt runs hot or slips, such as higher-speed or smaller-pulley industrial applications. This page covers how to confirm the belt fits your drive before you order.
Start by reading the marking on the back of the old belt. You are looking for the profile, BX, and the length, 5284 mm. If the existing belt is worn or the marking is gone, measure the outside length and check the cross-section against the BX profile. A belt that matches both the profile and the length will seat correctly in the pulley grooves.
Cogged classical V-belts are common on fans, pumps, compressors, and other industrial equipment where the drive runs at higher speeds or uses smaller pulleys. The cogged construction is molded into the belt, not added later, and it is typical for this belt type to run on standard B-section pulleys. Inspect the pulleys for wear, alignment, and debris before installing a replacement.
If you are replacing more than one belt on a multi-belt drive, order the full set at the same time. Mixed belts can wear at different rates and cause uneven loading. For a quote, send the part number BX 205, the quantity, and any details from the old belt marking. Our team can confirm the belt or suggest an equivalent.

Frequently asked questions
- How do I confirm this belt fits my drive?
- Check the old belt marking for the BX profile and 5284 mm length. If the marking is unreadable, measure the outside length and the cross-section, then compare to the BX profile and 5284 mm length of this belt.
- What should I send for a quote?
- Send the part number BX 205, the quantity you need, and any marking details from the old belt. If you are unsure, include a photo of the old belt and the pulley grooves.
- Can I replace just one belt on a multi-belt drive?
- It is best to replace all belts on the drive at the same time. Belts that have run together wear together, and mixing old and new belts can lead to uneven tension and load.
