    Keep every belt-driven engine accessory turning with the Gates Automotive XL High Capacity V-Belt (MPN 7445), a durable notched replacement V-belt built for demanding engine drives. It installs as a direct-fit replacement on many vehicles, including the 1977-1985 Chevrolet Impala V8-5.0L and the 1985-1986 Ford F-250 V8-7.5L — see the "Vehicles it fits" section for the full list.

    • Variable notched design: as engine thermal forces heat the belt, it tightens on the drive to help prevent slippage, improve belt performance, and reduce noise.
    • Fiber-loaded EPDM rubber stock: adds flexibility along the length of the belt and provides greater lateral stability in the pulley.
    • Form-ground profile: precise top-width and sidewall dimensional control for a proper fit to the pulley.
    • Thermally-active polyester tensile cords: deliver maintenance-free performance when the belt is properly installed and tensioned.

    It resists oil, heat, ozone, weather, and aging to help extend belt life, and it meets or exceeds SAE J636C specifications. Specs: HC41 cross section, .41 in (10 mm) top width, 36° angle, 44.5 in (1130 mm) effective length, and 45.33 in (1151 mm) outside circumference. Quantity varies by application — some engines use two of these belts, so confirm your engine's requirement; the listing is sold in the stated package quantity. Country of origin: United States.
