Gates 3370 Truflex Fhp V-belt Low Horsepower

Product Description

The GATES 3370 is a Truflex FHP (Fractional Horsepower) V-belt designed for low-horsepower drive applications across lawn and garden equipment, residential HVAC systems, light-duty appliances, and miscellaneous fractional horsepower machinery. The belt features a universal construction with engineered cord placement and a durable cover that delivers smooth, quiet operation with reduced vibration during use. The concave sides are designed to fill out under load, making even contact with sheave groove walls to distribute wear uniformly and extend service life. The compound is oil and heat resistant and also resists ozone, weathering, and common chemicals and detergents.

This belt is suited for residential and light commercial applications where fractional horsepower drives are standard. Typical install scenarios include lawn mower deck drives, garden tractor auxiliaries, furnace blower drives, home air conditioning units, and light shop equipment. It is sold as a single belt (quantity of one per package). Note: this belt is not rated for applications that specify FHP Medium Horsepower V-belts - confirm drive requirements before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified technician familiar with drive belt systems. Always disengage power, shut off the equipment engine or disconnect electrical power, and allow all moving parts to come to a complete stop before removing or installing the belt. Do not pry the belt over sheave flanges using sharp tools, as this can damage the cord structure. Verify sheave alignment and groove condition before fitting the replacement belt.
