Gates® Power Transmission Poly Chain® GT® Carbon™ 8MGT-2240-21 Synchronous Belt, 21 mm W, 2240 mm OAL, 8 mm Pitch, 280 Teeth, Polyurethane
Give yourself a competitive advantage by designing in the Gates Poly Chain™ GT™ Carbon drive system instead of roller chain in your next power transmission application. The patented use of carbon fiber as the tensile cord in this belt provides increased horsepower rating for greater power density and compactness. When combined with Gates Poly Chain GT sprockets, you have a lightweight, long-lasting, maintenance-free system that's more than a match for roller chain.

The McGill® CAMROL® full complement needle bearings feature black oxide treated bearing steel. They are available in two basic mounting styles for use in mechanical automation or linear motion applications. Our basic features each contribute to superior performance. The LUBRIDISC® seal option helps prevent metal to metal contact within the bearing. It also provides a barrier for containment entry and blowout protection when relubricating. These bearings are available with several dimensional choices. The seal options and combinations provide a specific solution for each application. Within the following section you can learn more about these features and how they can be applied to your application.
