A campaign to encourage technicians to overhaul drive systems rather than just replace the belts and tensioners is underway by Gates and is celebrating production of 5 million timing belt kits at its Polish plant, 20 years after the introduction of its PowerGrip belt. PowerGrip timing belt kits include all the components for a synchronous belt drive system and all of the OE quality components are designed and engineered together. The ranges cover 99% of the vehicles in the European parc, covering petrol and diesel engines in Asian, European and American models.
