Browning 1093962 3L380 Fhp V-belt 38in 3L Section

Product Description

The BROWNING 1093962 is a fractional horsepower (FHP) V-belt designed for light-duty power transmission in HVAC, appliance, and general equipment applications. This non-cogged, single-band belt features a 3L cross-section with a top width of 3/8 inches and a thickness of 7/32 inches. The 38-inch outside length suits a range of small-motor drive configurations. Constructed with a neoprene body and rubber outer material over a cotton tensile cord, the belt delivers reliable flexibility and resistance to heat up to 140 degrees F. HVAC technicians and equipment service pros install this belt as a direct replacement on blower and fan drive assemblies.

This belt fits fractional horsepower drive systems commonly found in residential and light-commercial HVAC units, portable fans, washing machines, and other belt-driven equipment that calls for a standard 3L-section belt. The 38-inch outside length is a widely used size in blower and motor pulley setups. When sourcing a replacement, match the cross-section (3L) and outside length to the existing belt or OEM specification to ensure proper fit and tension.

Key Features

• 3L cross-section profile with 3/8-inch top width for FHP drive compatibility
• 38-inch outside length for a broad range of small-motor and blower applications
• Neoprene body construction resists heat up to 140 degrees F
• Cotton tensile cord provides dimensional stability under load

• Imperial measurement system; 7/32-inch belt thickness

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement for fractional horsepower drive systems requiring a 3L-section V-belt with a 38-inch outside length.

Installation Notes

FHP V-belts are typically installed by HVAC technicians or appliance service technicians. Before replacing the belt, disconnect power to the unit and lock out the circuit at the breaker. Relieve drive tension by adjusting the motor mount or idler before removing the old belt — never pry a belt over a pulley under tension. After seating the new belt, adjust tension per the equipment manufacturer's specification and verify pulley alignment before restoring power.
