Help keep your engine accessories driven quietly and reliably with the Gates Automotive XL High Capacity V-Belt (MPN 7460), a durable, long-lasting replacement V-belt built for demanding engine drives. It's a direct-fit replacement for many listed vehicles, including the 1964-1965 Ford Mustang L6-3.3L and 1977-1979 Chevrolet Impala V8-5.0L; see the "Vehicles it fits" section for the full list.
- Variable-notched design: as thermal forces heat the belt, it tightens on the drive to help prevent slippage, improve belt performance, and reduce noise.
- Fiber-loaded rubber stock: adds flexibility along the length of the belt and provides greater lateral stability in the pulley.
- Form-ground: precise top-width and sidewall dimensional control for a proper fit to the pulley.
- Thermally-active tensile cords: polyester cords deliver maintenance-free performance when properly installed and tensioned, and the belt resists oil, heat, ozone, weather, and aging for improved belt life.
Built from EPDM belt stock with polyester cords, this HC41 V-belt measures 0.41 in (10 mm) top width, 46 in (1168 mm) effective length, and 46.82 in (1189 mm) outside circumference. It meets or exceeds SAE J636C specifications. Because some applications use more than one belt (the catalog lists up to three per application), confirm how many your engine requires; this listing is for one belt. Made in the United States.
