Designed with a proprietary elastomer compound and aramid tensile cords, it balances improved heat tolerance, axial stiffness, and shock resistance to handle hauling, heavy loads, and aggressive terrain. It comes in the specific size 31\/32\" x 36 1\/4\" and is intended for non-turbocharged, non-heavily modified engines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does the G-Force Workhorse belt resist cracking and wear?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe belt uses an advanced Ethylene Elastomer (EE) compound that raises axial stiffness and reduces heat-related degradation. That formulation helps the belt maintain shape and friction properties under repeated load cycles, cutting down on surface cracking and premature wear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eEE compound increases heat tolerance under sustained loads\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eImproved axial stiffness preserves belt geometry\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eEngineered to minimize speed loss and heat fade\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWill this belt improve performance when hauling or during heavy acceleration?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes — high-tensile aramid cords inside the belt deliver strong shock-load resistance and raise fatigue life, which helps maintain acceleration and torque transfer under heavy strain. The result is more consistent power delivery when towing or traversing rough terrain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAramid cord maximizes tensile strength for load-bearing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBetter shock absorption during sudden torque changes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eReduced fatigue lengthens usable belt life under heavy use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eIs this belt suitable for modified or turbocharged machines?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo — the Gates Workhorse belt is not recommended for turbocharged or heavily modified engine setups.

The Gates 19G3982 G-Force Workhorse CVT belt is intended for ATV, UTV, and light utility owners who need a more robust replacement than stock belts provide—especially those who tow, haul, or ride on challenging trails. It suits riders who prioritize longer belt life, consistent acceleration under load, and resistance to heat and wear. Avoid this belt if your machine is turbocharged or heavily modified; in those cases, consult a specialist for a belt or drive solution rated for extreme outputs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"product-faq-snippet\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-q\"\u003eQ: What is the belt size for the Gates 19G3982?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-a\"\u003eA: The belt measures 31\/32\" width by 36 1\/4\" circumference; confirm fitment with your vehicle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-q\"\u003eQ: Can I use this belt on a turbocharged machine?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-a\"\u003eA: No. This belt is not recommended for turbocharged or heavily modified engines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e","brand":"Gates","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48084021674142,"sku":"B007USCEPY","price":102.17,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0781\/2041\/9486\/files\/gates-g-force-workhorse-front-packaging_24c8e943-b69f-45c6-9f38-dc1df67b1629.jpg?v=1785843751","url":"https:\/\/northtrailauto.ca\/products\/gates-g-force-workhorse-cvt-belt-31-32-x-36-1-4-aramid-cords-high-durability-heat-resistant-design","provider":"North Trail Auto","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
