Browning AX70 Belt
The Browning AX70 Belt is a high-performance Gripnotch V-Belt designed for demanding HVACR and industrial drive applications. Featuring a 72.2-inch outside diameter and a 1/2-inch top width, this Type AX cogged belt is engineered with a raw-edge construction that maximizes power transmission efficiency—reaching up to 98%. Unlike standard wrapped belts, the precision-molded cogs increase surface area for superior heat dissipation, reducing internal operating temperatures and extending the service life of centrifugal fans and blower motors. Built from a robust EPDM rubber compound, the AX70 maintains structural integrity across a wide temperature range of -60°F to 250°F, providing excellent resistance to oil, chemicals, and environmental ozone. Its high-strength synthetic fiber tensile cords are specifically treated to minimize elongation and absorb shock loads, ensuring a Code 1 Match tolerance for balanced multi-belt drives. This notched V-belt is an ideal upgrade for narrow profile drives, allowing for smaller sheave diameters without sacrificing torque or reliability.
Key Benefits- Increased Horsepower Capacity: Notched design provides higher power ratings compared to standard wrapped belts, allowing for more compact drive configurations.
- Advanced EPDM Construction: Resists heat-related hardening and cracking, making it suitable for high-ambient rooftop units and industrial machinery.
- Energy Efficiency: Molded cogs reduce bending stress and energy loss, offering up to 3% higher efficiency than conventional A-section belts.
- Code 1 Matching: Precision manufacturing ensures tight length tolerances, preventing belt "fighting" and vibration on multi-groove pulleys.
- Superior Grip: Raw-edge sidewalls improve pulley contact and reduce slippage, ensuring consistent CFM output in HVAC systems.
Can I use a Browning AX70 to replace a standard A70 wrapped belt?
Yes, the AX70 is a direct performance upgrade for the A70. It shares the same cross-section dimensions but provides better flexibility, higher efficiency, and improved heat resistance on small diameter sheaves.
What is the difference between pitch length and outside diameter for this part?
While the outside diameter is 72.2 inches for measurement and identification, the pitch length is 71.3 inches, which is the critical dimension used for calculating center distances and drive ratios.
Is this belt suitable for oily or high-temperature environments?
The EPDM material is specifically formulated to withstand oil exposure and maintains its flexibility in temperatures reaching up to 250°F, significantly outperforming standard neoprene belts in commercial air handlers.
