    Engineered specifically for school buses that deal with long idle times and high temperatures, Gates said its accessory belt drive kits contain “better-than-OE components for optimal repairs and long-lasting performance.”

    According to the company, each kit contains a FleetRunner Micro-V Belt and a Green Stripe DriveAlign Tensioner, and is designed for systems working in tough environments.

    Gates said it offers more than 80 kits to choose from so that technicians in school bus depots will have “premium parts for the entire accessory belt drive system,” the company added.
