All Gates products satisfy or even exceed demands for firts mounting and so that Gates name in car and motocycle industry is a synonym for first class product which preserves its characteristics in different working conditions. All Gates factories in Europe have the ISO 9002 certificate as well as a QS-9000 certificate granted from Ford, GM and Chrysler. GM in 1996 granted Gates with QSP award for excellent performance in the main areas: quality, service and price. Ford and Toyota assessed Gates as the best supplier in 1997.

One piece of news supports this assessment, in August it has introduced and went in to sale a new micro V – XF belt which with its improvements: two times longer life than conventional, EPDM composite which is used in manufacturing for first mounting, 65% more resisant on high temperatures, quiet and flexible on all working behaviours etc, simply it gives more.

Micro – V type belts with along V flutes. Low profile along flutes enable complete contact and excellent belt flexibility.
V belt Powergrip – designed for transfer of wide speed and power ranges on the cam shaft. Powerful fiberglass fibers enable increased flexibility and stretching resistancy precisely designed gears enable excellent connections of throughs on the gearbox and decreased noise level.
Green FleetRunner® heavy-duty belts of the Gates company for commercial vehicles.

New heavy duty diesel engine, with round exhaust system, have decreased the emission of harmful exhaust gases, but it significantly increased engine working temperature which extremely influences belts characteristics and decreases their life.
Gates FleetRunner Micro-V ® and V-belts can suffer these temperatures in typical usage even twice as long as belts from other manufacturers. It has been confirmed with tests that FleetRunner Micro-V belts persist a minimum of 100.000 miles, what is earth's amplitude. This testing is performed by independent companies on class 7 trucks on the altitude of 10.000 feet; from extreme heat to extreme coldness; from start stop drive to constant speed drive for a longer period of time.
