With a 20-inch outside length and a 1\/2-inch top width, this belt transmits power efficiently between sheaves in fractional-horsepower and small-motor applications. Constructed from rubber with heat-resistant and oil-resistant properties, the A18 handles operating temperatures up to 194 degrees F. It meets RMA standards for dimensional consistency and load capacity. Technicians rely on this belt for routine replacement work on blower assemblies, fan drives, and compressor drives.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe BANDO A18 is suited for residential and light commercial HVAC equipment, refrigeration units, and general mechanical drive systems where Section A belts are specified. Typical applications include belt-driven blower motors, condenser fan assemblies, and small pump drives. It installs wherever a standard Section A belt with an 18-inch internal length is called for, making it a direct OEM-style replacement in a wide range of single-belt and multi-belt drive configurations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSection A profile with 1\/2-inch top width and 5\/16-inch thickness for standard sheave fitment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e20-inch outside length, 18-inch internal length, and 19.3-inch pitch length\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRubber construction rated heat resistant and oil resistant\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaximum operating temperature of 194 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeets RMA dimensional and performance standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClassic wrapped construction for compatibility with standard A-section sheaves\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement for any drive system specifying a standard Section A V-belt with an 18-inch internal length and 20-inch outside length.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a qualified HVAC technician, refrigeration mechanic, or mechanical service professional. Disconnect and lock out all power to the equipment before removing the old belt or accessing the drive assembly. Relieve sheave tension before removal and verify correct belt section, outside length, and pitch against the equipment manufacturer's specification before installing the new belt. Never pry a belt over a sheave under tension, as this can damage the belt cord and reduce service life.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBelt Section\u003c\/strong\u003e: A\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBelt Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Classic Standard V-Belt\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutside Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 20 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInternal Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 18 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBelt Pitch\u003c\/strong\u003e: 19.3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTop Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.31 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\u003eMaximum Temperature\u003c\/strong\u003e: 194 degrees F\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: RMA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.12 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\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: A18\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"BANDO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51700506657074,"sku":"A18","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/74d8ce8d54cb03e3c41b6ddee4f16fbb_5c6312ae-a6ce-4294-ae70-f466dbfaef0c.jpg?v=1788391264","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/bando-a18-v-belt-section-a-20-in-standard-classic","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
