Bando 4l480 Fhp V-belt 48 in 1/2 in Top Width

Product Description

The BANDO 4l480 is a fractional horsepower (FHP) V-belt built to the 4L cross-section standard, with a 48-inch outside length, 1/2-inch top width, and 7 mm thickness. Part of the Bando Duraflex GL line, this belt is engineered for light-duty power transmission in small equipment drives, household appliances, and low-horsepower mechanical systems. The 4L profile is a widely used fractional horsepower cross-section that seats reliably in standard FHP sheaves. Licensed HVAC technicians, appliance service techs, and equipment mechanics regularly stock this belt for common service calls involving belt-driven blowers, fans, and small motor drives.

This belt is suited for residential and light commercial applications where compact, low-horsepower drives are used. Typical installations include small air handlers, window unit fans, workshop equipment, appliances, and agricultural or light industrial equipment with fractional horsepower motors. The Duraflex GL construction is intended for applications that demand flexibility and dimensional consistency across a standard 4L belt profile. Conforms to RMA IP-23 standards, ensuring compatibility with sheaves and drives built to that specification.

Installation Notes

Belt installation and replacement is typically performed by HVAC technicians, appliance technicians, or equipment mechanics. Always disconnect and lock out power to the drive before removing or installing belts. Verify sheave alignment and proper belt tension after installation to prevent premature wear. Do not force the belt over sheave flanges using tools that could damage the belt cord or cover.
