Jason Industrial A96 Rubber V-belt 0.5 X 98 Inches

Product Description

The JASON INDUSTRIAL A96 is a black rubber V-belt designed for industrial power transmission applications. Sized at 0.5 inches wide by 98 inches in length, this A-section belt delivers reliable torque transfer across a wide range of driven equipment. It is built for continuous-duty use in demanding environments where belt slippage, heat buildup, and wear resistance are primary concerns. Maintenance technicians, millwrights, and HVAC service professionals install this belt type on fans, blowers, compressors, and general-purpose industrial drives where a standard A-section profile is specified.

This belt is suited for light to medium industrial drive applications including HVAC air handlers, ventilation fans, pump drives, and equipment conveyors that call for an A-section V-belt. The A96 designation follows standard belt sizing conventions, making it a direct match for any drive system engineered for an A96 cross-section belt. It is appropriate for both commercial and light industrial installations wherever the A-profile is the specified belt geometry.

Key Features

• A-section V-belt profile: 0.5 inches wide by 98 inches outside circumference

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement for any drive system requiring a standard A-section V-belt with an A96 designation, including HVAC blower assemblies, industrial fans, and general-purpose belt-driven equipment.

Installation Notes

A licensed mechanic, HVAC technician, or millwright should de-energize and lock out the drive unit before removing or installing any belt. Loosen the motor mount or tensioner to relieve belt tension before removal — never pry a belt over a sheave under load. After installation, verify proper belt tension and sheave alignment before returning the equipment to service. Follow applicable OSHA lockout/tagout procedures and equipment manufacturer guidelines throughout the service procedure.
