Description

Keep the accessories spinning with the Gates High Capacity V-Belt 7520 — a durable, long-lasting replacement V-belt built for demanding engine accessory drives. It's a direct-fit belt for many vehicles, including the 1978-1982 Ford F-150 4.9L, the 1980-1985 Chevrolet Impala 3.8L and the 1978-1982 Ford F-250 4.9L — see the "Vehicles it fits" section for the full list.

This is an XL-series notched V-belt (HC41 cross section) with a 0.41 in (10 mm) top width and a 52 in effective length.

Variable notched design: as the drive heats up the belt tightens on it, helping 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 profile: precise top-width and sidewall dimensional control for proper fit to the pulley.
Thermally-active polyester tensile cords: maintenance-free performance when properly installed and tensioned; the EPDM belt resists oil, heat, ozone, weather and aging for improved belt life.

Meets or exceeds SAE J636C standards. Made in the United States. Quantity varies by application — some engines use two belts while others use one; this listing is for a single belt.
