    Poly Chain® Carbon™ Volt™ Belts

    Antistatic power transmission belts are a must in volatile environments. To ensure the highest safety standards, their capacity to safely dissipate static electricity should meet the required levels over the lifetime of the belt - and not only when new. The Poly Chain Carbon Volt belt is the only belt in the market that meets the ISO 9563 standard over the complete lifespan of the belt. Its patented, static-conductive jacket construction transfers static electricity safely to carbon tensile cords, away from the driven side of the application - making it your safest and strongest option for reliable dissipation of electrostatic charges.

    • Maintains static conductivity (ISO 9563) and for conditions described in the Directive 2014/34/EU-ATEX over the lifetime of the belt.
    • Durable polyurethane construction resists chemicals, oil, pollutants, and abrasion.
    • Robust carbon tensile cord combines minimal stretch with extraordinary strength and load carrying capacity.
    • Gates curvilinear tooth profile provides high shear strength and improved load carrying capacity. Nylon tooth facing reduces friction and eliminates the need for lubrication.
    • Equivalent capacity to roller chain drives in the same width that offer a maintenance-free, clean solution with no lubrication or retensioning required.

    BETTER PERFORMANCE BY DESIGN.

    Gates® Poly Chain® Carbon™ Volt™ Belts take everything we've put into our Poly Chain® belts and makes them better. Carbon tensile cords and polyurethane construction superior provide strength and fatigue resistance, limiting stretch, and providing maximum flexibility. The patented curvilinear tooth profile provides exceptional power transmission capabilities. While the patented anti static jacket makes the belt ideal for volatile environments and is ATEX directive compliant.

    Features and Benefits
