Browning BX112 Belt
The Browning BX112 Belt is a heavy-duty Gripnotch V-belt engineered for high-demand HVACR and industrial mechanical drive systems. Featuring a BX section profile with a 21/32" top width and a 7/16" thickness, this cogged V-belt is designed to provide efficient power transmission by reducing slippage and increasing torque capacity compared to standard wrapped belts. The precision molded cogs enhance flexibility, allowing the belt to operate effectively on smaller diameter sheaves while maximizing surface area for superior heat dissipation. This results in a cooler-running drive, which is essential for maintaining belt integrity in high-ambient rooftop units and enclosed blower cabinets.
Constructed from high-grade EPDM rubber and reinforced with high-tensile synthetic cords, the Browning BX112 offers excellent resistance to oil and heat while remaining static conducting. With a 115" outside diameter and a 113.8" pitch length, this belt utilizes raw-edge sidewalls to ensure a positive grip on the pulley grooves, minimizing vibration and noise. This classical BX-section belt is an ideal choice for contractors looking to improve the energy efficiency of fans, blowers, and compressors in commercial HVAC systems.
Key Benefits- Precision molded cogs increase flexibility for use with sub-minimum pitch diameter sheaves and high-speed drives.
- EPDM rubber construction provides an expanded operating temperature range from -60°F to 250°F for extreme environments.
- Raw-edge sidewalls offer a higher coefficient of friction, reducing energy loss from belt slip by up to 3% over wrapped designs.
- High-tensile cords minimize stretch and the need for frequent re-tensioning during the maintenance cycle.
- Static conducting properties ensure safe operation in sensitive industrial and commercial applications.
What is the difference between the Browning BX112 and a standard B112 belt?
The BX112 features a notched (cogged) design which allows it to bend more easily around smaller pulleys and dissipate heat more effectively than the smooth, wrapped B112. This typically results in higher horsepower ratings and improved energy efficiency for the drive system.
Can I mix original TorqTitan and Gen II Browning belts on the same drive?
It is not recommended to mix different generations or brands of belts on a multiple-groove drive. To ensure uniform load distribution and prevent premature wear on the longer belts, always replace the entire set with matched Browning BX112 belts.
Does this belt require belt dressing to stop squealing?
No, belt dressing should never be used on Gripnotch V-belts. Squealing is typically a symptom of under-tensioning or worn sheaves. Verify the tension with a checker and inspect the pulley grooves for wear to resolve noise issues.
