"Gates Powergrip GT3 Drive Design Manual" (PDF). Gates Corporation. 2014. p. 177. Retrieved 17 November 2017. The GT tooth profile is based on the tractix mathematical function. Engineering handbooks describe this function as a "frictionless" system. This early development by Schiele is described as an involute form of a catenary.
