Gates Deflection Tension Tester

The force deflection tension method does not directly measure belt span tension or static tension. The deflection force is a calculated value that is based on the amount of static tension required in the belt. Static tension is the tension force that is actually in the belt, while deflection force is simply a measurement to check how much static tension is in the belt.

Description

Gates has 3 deflection tension testing tools for servicing of belt drives. The single barrel (30 lbs), the double barrel (66lbs) and 5-barrel (165 lbs) tester can be used to accurately measure the tension of individual or joined belts upon installation or during maintenance. Using the tension tester ensures that correct tension is maintained and is repeatable. This will yield not only a longer service life but a predictable one, enabling scheduled replacement rather than breakdown replacement.
