2006 Chevrolet C8500 Belts and Hoses

Specifically designed for heavy-duty truck, bus and off-road equipment applications. Absorbs normal shock loads without damage to the belt.

Product Features:

• Molded notches reduce bending stress, especially on small diameter pulleys, while dissipating heat
• High modulus, high strength tensile cord
• Oil and heat-resistant construction throughout
• Meets SAE J636b and SAE J637 specifications
• Meets RMA oil and heat resistant standards and static conductivity requirements
• NOTE: Some sizes available as Gates PowerBand joined V-belts

Replacement belt for the most demanding engine drives. Due to thermal forces, this variable notched belt actually tightens on the drive as it gets hot. This results in improved belt performance by reducing tension decay and noise.

Product Features:

• Fiber-loaded rubber stock adds flexibility along the length of the belt and provides greater lateral stability in the pulley
• Form-ground to ensure precise top width and sidewall dimensional control for proper fit to the pulley
• Thermally-active tensile cords for maintenance-free performance when properly installed and tensioned
• Resists oil, heat, ozone, weather and aging for improved belt life
• Meets or exceeds SAE J636C specifications

Dayco’s high performance HD V-belt is one of the most innovative, top performing belts for its application. By combining raw-edge construction with a specially formulated polyester cord treatment, it offers excellent resistance to repeated flexing and protection against heat, oil and grease as well as the strength, stability and reliability required for vehicles that still need a heavy-duty V-belt.

Product Features:

•  Designed for efficient power transmission to vehicle accessories in today’s trucks and buses
•  Provides greater durability and flexibility – 35% stronger than all previous versions
•  Features specially treated cords for added strength, stability and reliability
• Made with specially formulated rubber compounds, this belt is highly resistant to extreme under hood temperatures that can cause premature damage to under engineered rubber compounds
