Bando BX61 Cogged V-belt Bx Section 64 in Outside Length

Product Description

The BANDO BX61 is a classic cogged V-belt in BX section, designed for power transmission applications across HVAC, industrial, and agricultural equipment. It measures 64 inches in outside length and 21/32 inch in width, with a thickness of 13/32 inch. The cogged construction reduces bending resistance, which improves flexibility and heat dissipation during operation. Made from rubber with heat-resistant and oil-resistant properties, this belt is built to handle demanding drive environments. It meets ARPM standards and is installed by HVAC technicians, maintenance mechanics, and equipment service professionals.

The BX61 fits BX-section drive systems found in residential and commercial HVAC units, blower assemblies, compressors, fans, and light industrial machinery. Its classic cogged profile makes it a direct replacement in applications that call for a BX-series belt with a 64-inch outside length and a belt pitch of 62.8 inches. It ships as a single unit and is stocked for one-for-one replacement jobs where downtime matters.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement for BX-section V-belt drive systems requiring a 64-inch outside length belt in residential and commercial HVAC, blower, and light industrial equipment applications.

Installation Notes

A licensed HVAC technician or qualified mechanic should power down and lock out the equipment before replacing the drive belt. Remove tension from the existing belt by adjusting the motor mount or idler pulley before removal. Inspect sheaves and pulleys for wear or misalignment before installing the new belt, as worn grooves accelerate belt wear. Do not pry or force the belt over a sheave; always release tension first to seat the belt properly.
