A new product range and extensions across many others are included in the 2010 Drive Systems Application catalogue, to be published by Gates at the beginning of February.

Gates has also underlined its commitment to the installation of belt kits as a first call inside every workshop, with a major extension of the PowerGrip kit range (93 new references) and 16 further Micro-V XF kits.

The highlight of the new catalogue is the debut of DriveAlign Overrunning Alternator Pulleys, which increase engine efficiency and improve the comfort of the ride by absorbing vibrations and fluctuations in the accessory drive belt system. Images including dimensions of all 76 OAPs ensure ease of identification. Key extensions to the existing DriveAlign range include 19 more Torsional Vibration Dampers and 7 additional Vibration Dampers.

In all, the Gates 2010 Drive Systems Application Catalogue includes over 400 new drive system products, which will also be found on www.gatesautocat.com.
