Built from rubber in the 3VX section profile, it measures 25 inches in outside length, 3\/8 inch in width, and 5\/16 inch in thickness. The cogged construction reduces bending resistance across the belt cross-section, allowing it to run cooler and flex more efficiently on smaller-diameter sheaves. Heat and oil resistance are built into the compound, extending service life in environments where ambient temperatures and lubricant contamination are common concerns. This belt is installed and replaced by HVAC technicians, millwrights, and equipment service professionals across a wide range of drive applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 3VX250 is suited for use in residential and light commercial HVAC equipment, fans, blowers, compressors, and general industrial machinery where a narrow cogged 3VX-section belt is specified. Its cogged profile makes it compatible with standard 3VX-groove sheaves and pulleys. The belt is particularly useful in high-speed, high-efficiency drives where reduced heat generation and improved flex life are priorities over a standard wrapped belt of the same cross-section.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNarrow cogged 3VX section profile for improved flexibility and reduced heat buildup\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e25 inch outside length suits common blower and fan drive configurations\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHeat-resistant and oil-resistant rubber compound extends service life\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/8 inch width and 5\/16 inch thickness match standard 3VX sheave groove dimensions\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets ARPM standards for dimensional accuracy and performance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBlack rubber construction — no fabric wrap to crack or peel over time\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a direct replacement for any application specifying a 3VX section cogged V-belt with a 25 inch outside length and 3\/8 inch width, used with standard 3VX-groove sheaves and pulleys.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBelt replacement is typically performed by HVAC technicians or mechanical service professionals. Always de-energize and lockout\/tagout the equipment before removing drive guards or handling belts. Set sheave spacing to allow belt installation without forcing — never pry a belt onto a sheave, as this can damage the cord structure and shorten belt life. After installation, verify tension and alignment per the equipment manufacturer's drive specifications before returning the unit to service.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBelt Section\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3VX\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle\u003c\/strong\u003e: Narrow Cogged\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutside Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBelt Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inch (0.38 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/16 inch (0.32 inches)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Rubber\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor\u003c\/strong\u003e: Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eResistance Features\u003c\/strong\u003e: Heat Resistant, Oil Resistant\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: ARPM\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.436 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: BANDO\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3VX250\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"BANDO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51540892614962,"sku":"3VX250","price":20.1,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/3aa0957530c34ab51330e0bcbaf390d9_5f01f212-6369-446e-a6da-30f13accd13e.jpg?v=1785865568","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/bando-3vx250-cogged-v-belt-3vx-25-in-od-3-8-in-wide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
