Built from heat-resistant and oil-resistant rubber, this belt features a cogged underside that reduces bending resistance, runs cooler, and transfers power more efficiently than a standard smooth-back V-belt. The AX section profile measures 1\/2 inch wide and 5\/16 inch thick, with a 24-inch outside length and a 22-inch internal length. It meets ARPM standards and is suited for installations where a standard A-section belt has been updated to a cogged AX equivalent.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe AX22 is commonly installed in residential and light commercial HVAC systems, including belt-drive blower assemblies, condenser fan drives, and compressor drive systems. It is also used in pump drives, air compressors, and other equipment requiring a compact, high-flex drive belt. HVAC technicians and mechanical contractors typically specify AX-section cogged belts as direct upgrades to smooth A-section belts of the same pitch length. The cogged construction allows it to flex over smaller-diameter sheaves without cracking or glazing under heat.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCogged underside reduces bending stress and heat buildup on small-diameter sheaves\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeat-resistant and oil-resistant rubber compound extends service life in harsh drive environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAX section: 1\/2 inch wide, 5\/16 inch thick, 24-inch outside length, 22-inch internal length\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeets ARPM industry standards for V-belt dimensions and performance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClassic cogged style compatible with standard A-section sheaves and grooves\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLightweight at 0.44 pounds, suitable for single-belt and multi-belt drive configurations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe AX22 is an AX-section cogged V-belt compatible with sheaves and pulleys grooved for standard A-section or AX-section belts.

Always de-energize and lock out the equipment before removing or installing drive belts. Never force a belt over a sheave flange using a screwdriver or pry bar, as this damages the cord construction; instead, reduce center distance to allow the belt to seat properly. After installation, verify belt tension and sheave alignment according to the equipment manufacturer's service documentation before returning the unit to operation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBelt Section\u003c\/strong\u003e: AX\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle\u003c\/strong\u003e: Classic Cogged\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutside Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 24 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInternal Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 22 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBelt Pitch\u003c\/strong\u003e: 23.3 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBelt Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch (0.50 inch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/16 inch (0.31 inch)\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: 0.44 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: AX22\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"BANDO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51700761395506,"sku":"AX22","price":19.79,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/a22f870a8dc9d23b52f17936476304c9_09334ad6-78e1-4026-a977-d61d22b532bf.jpg?v=1788394933","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/bando-ax22-cogged-v-belt-ax-section-24-in-1-2-in-wide","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
