Description
For over a century, Gates has driven innovation in belt technology to power the machines that move you. Gates® G-Force C12 CVT belt drives are engineered to navigate the toughest off-road trails with power and efficiency. The industry's first CVT belt with carbon tensile cord also features a trapezoid top-notch and rounded cog design for superior flexibility and heat dissipation, along with a unique gum adhesion that reduces fiber pullout within the belt extending the life of the belt. Gates combines material science and process engineering to create innovative products that provide performance, reliability and the strength to withstand even the most challenging off-road environments. Continuous innovation isn't just what we do. It's who we are.
WHY G-FORCE C12 BELTS?
- STRENGTH: The first CVT belt utilizing carbon tensile cord for minimal stretch and extraordinary strength.
- FLEXIBILITY: High-performance neoprene with a trapezoidal topnotch and rounded bottom cog design maximizing heat control and flexibility.
- DURABILITY: Carbon tensile cords are bonded to aramid fiber-loaded rubber with specially formulated adhesion gum, resulting in increased side-load resistance, preventing belt distortion and edge cord pullout.
- PERFORMANCE: Gain optimal power transmission for faster acceleration, improved throttle response and consistent shifting performance.

Vehicle Information
Arctic Cat Crossfire 500 Snowmobile (2007-2009)
The Arctic Cat Crossfire 500, produced from 2007 to 2009, was a snowmobile known for its robust performance. It consistently featured a 499cc, liquid-cooled, horizontal in-line, 2-stroke, reed valve engine with electronic fuel injection (EFI), delivering approximately 80 horsepower. The primary trim offered for this model was the Crossfire 5. Throughout its production, the Crossfire 500 saw some notable updates. In 2007, the 500 two-stroke engine received an upgrade, incorporating a twin throttle body design, and all Crossfire models gained Push Button ACT Reverse as standard. The 2008 model year largely carried over these specifications. For 2009, Crossfire models underwent a rear suspension overhaul for weight reduction, and the track length was extended to 141 inches from the previous 136 inches on most models. The lighter Arctic Cat Engine Reverse (ACER) system was also introduced, which could be retrofitted to earlier models. FAQ:
