LUXEMBOURG, Jan. 29, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Gates (NYSE: GTES), a leading global provider of application-specific fluid power and power transmission solutions, has expanded its thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) drive belt product line with the introduction of the SUPER Flex Polar™ belt. Designed specifically for indoor and outdoor applications operating in temperatures as low as -30°C and -22°F, the SUPER Flex Polar is the optimal conveying solution. The belt is available in a wide range of lengths and widths to accommodate the requirements of most original equipment manufacturers and distributors. Using the extrusion process, the new belt has helically-wound steel cords that allow for improved flexibility and work efficiently in tight, confined, temperature-specific spaces where small pulley diameters are critical.
"Through our passion to continually develop innovative and high-quality products, we've added a unique TPU resin to this product line to offer full power capacity down to -30°C," said Heinz Watzinger, Gates TPU product manager. "This belt can be used with new equipment, or as a replacement, in any extreme-cold working environment to meet a wide variety of needs. Additionally, our product doesn't require a special order, which is novel in the marketplace."
Customer benefits of the SUPER Flex Polar are as follows:
All Gates TPU belts are made from an abrasion-resistant polyurethane material providing thermoplastic flexibility, as well as long-lasting and energy efficient belt system solutions for the most demanding applications. The SUPER Flex Polar is designed for a diverse range of industries and markets, including oil and gas, glass, ceramics, packaging and textiles.
