Browning BX113 Belt
Professional-grade Browning BX113 Belt replacements are essential for maintaining the integrity of high-torque HVACR drive systems. This Gripnotch BX series V-belt is specifically engineered with a cogged V-belt design to handle the rigorous demands of commercial air handlers and industrial blowers. Featuring a 116-inch outside diameter and a 21/32-inch top width, the BX113 utilizes a high-modulus EPDM rubber compound that remains stable in extreme temperatures ranging from -60°F to +250°F. The precision-molded cogs increase surface area for superior heat dissipation and allow the belt to wrap around smaller diameter BX profile sheaves without the internal stress typical of standard wrapped belts. The raw-edge sidewalls ensure a high coefficient of friction for maximum power transmission efficiency, effectively reducing energy loss by up to 3% compared to non-notched alternatives. For contractors performing scheduled maintenance, the Browning Code 1 match system ensures that any BX113 belt meets or exceeds RMA standards for matched set uniformity, eliminating the vibration issues caused by uneven belt tension in multi-groove drives.
Key Benefits for HVACR Applications- Enhanced Flexibility: The notched BX section profile allows for smaller drive ratios and reduced bending stress, extending the operational life of the belt in tight mechanical rooms.
- EPDM Construction: Naturally resistant to oil, heat, and ozone, ensuring the Browning BX113 maintains its tensile strength in high-static pressure environments.
- Superior Grip: Raw-edge sidewalls provide a firm seated contact with the pulley grooves, preventing the slip and squeal common during high-torque motor startups.
- Standardized Matching: Part of the "Code 1" system, allowing technicians to pull any BX113 from stock and expect precision grouping without measuring individual lengths.
Is the BX113 interchangeable with a standard B113 belt?
While the dimensions are similar, the BX113 cogged belt offers higher horsepower ratings and better flexibility. It can replace a B113 to improve efficiency, especially on smaller sheaves, but you should never mix wrapped and notched belts on the same drive.
What are the exact dimensions for cross-referencing?
The Browning BX113 features a 116" nominal outside length and a 114.8" pitch length. It has a standard BX cross-section with a 21/32" top width and approximately 13/32" thickness.
How should tension be set for this specific Gripnotch belt?
Technicians should use a tension gauge to set the belt at the lowest tension where it does not slip under peak load. Over-tensioning can lead to premature bearing failure on the motor or blower shaft.
