Designed for the most demanding, turbo-charged off-road CVT applications. With Gates proprietary materials and design, G-Force RedLine CVT belts handle extreme temperatures with excellent heat recovery, while maximizing load and torque capacity making it one of the most efficient CVT belts currently on the market.
Why G-Force RedLine CVT Belts?
- Greater heat resistance and recovery, even under severe duty cycles.
- Optimized, patented EE compound maximizes axial stiffness enabling belts to run at higher continuous torques or loads.
- Innovative design results in better acceleration, higher top speeds, less speed ratio and energy loss in extreme off-road environments.
- Improved durability, crack and wear-resistance means a longer-lasting, high-performance power transmission belt for the most demanding applications.
- Reduced environmental risk made without harmful chlorinated compounds.
Features
- First on the market to utilize Ethylene Elastomer compound to address the needs of larger SxS and high-horsepower ORVs in tough riding conditions.
- Next-generation EE compound offers maximum transverse stiffness and heat resistance, resulting in higher load capacity, higher peak torque capacity, less "heat fade" and less speed loss.
- Delivers 75% greater dynamic axial stiffness on average, up to 50% lower speed losses and better recovery from temperatures up to +170°C (+338°F) without power loss.
- Unmatched Temperature Capability - Runs cooler, resists glazing for better recovery and reduced cracking/chunking out after running at temps exceeding +149°C (+300°F).
- Extended Belt Life - Belt life increased 100-300% versus aftermarket competitive belts in severe duty lab test conditions and in field testing.
- Higher Power Capacity - Reduced speed (rpm) loss by 50% under high loads and increased load capacity by >10% compared to other aftermarket belt.

Vehicle Information
Ski-Doo Skandic 550 Snowmobile (2004-2020)
The Ski-Doo Skandic 550 is a robust utility snowmobile, powered by the Rotax 550F engine, a 553.4cc fan-cooled two-stroke twin-cylinder producing approximately 60 horsepower. This model was offered from 2004 to 2020, positioning itself as a reliable choice for work and trail recreation. While the 550F engine remained consistent during this period, the platforms evolved. Earlier models utilized the REV platform (up to 2008), known for its rider-forward design. Subsequently, many Skandic 550F models transitioned to the REV-XU platform (from around 2011-2012), engineered for increased ruggedness with an aluminum chassis and improved suspensions for better flotation and pulling power. Trims included the Skandic WT (Wide Track), SUV (Sport Utility Vehicle), and SWT (Super Wide Track), as well as various Tundra derivatives (LT, Sport). The 550F engine was generally not paired with the REV Gen4 platform, which emerged later with more powerful engines. FAQ:

Maintenance
| Component | Interval | Details |
| Oil (2-Stroke Injection Oil) | Check before every ride | Keep the reservoir full. Use high-quality 2-stroke injection oil (TC-W3 or manufacturer-specific). The 2-stroke engine does not have a traditional oil filter. |
| Chaincase Oil | Annually or every 3,200 km | Ideally replace at the end of the season. Adjust chain tension when changing oil. |
| Drive Belt | Visually inspect before every ride. Replace if worn (generally between 2,400 and 4,800 km). | Look for signs of wear (cracking, fraying). Remove belt dust from clutch faces annually. |
| Spark Plugs | Replace before the season for moderate use; more frequently for hard use. | Consult the manual for exact specifications and gap. |
| Air Filter | Periodically | Shake snow and remove to dry. |
| Coolant | Check before the season and occasionally. Flush and replace every 4 to 5 years. | Level should be at the "cold" line. Inspect for leaks. |
