Browning BX87 Belt
The Browning BX87 is a high-performance Gripnotch V-Belt engineered for demanding HVACR and industrial drive applications. Designed with a 90" outside diameter and a 21/32" top width, this Type BX section belt utilizes a specialized EPDM rubber construction that maintains structural integrity across an extreme temperature range of -70°F to +250°F. The precision molded cogs provide superior flexibility and increased surface area for rapid heat dissipation, ensuring the belt runs cooler and resists premature failure under high-load conditions. By utilizing raw-edge sidewalls, the BX87 delivers a higher coefficient of friction and improved sheave contact compared to standard wrapped belts, resulting in up to 3% higher energy efficiency. This cogged V-belt is specifically built to handle high horsepower requirements and shock loads in systems with small-diameter pulleys. The Browning Code 1 match tolerance ensures precise length consistency, allowing for easy selection and balanced multi-belt drives without the need for traditional matching numbers.
Key Benefits for Technicians:
- Enhanced Power Rating: The notched design allows for higher horsepower capacity in compact drive configurations compared to classical wrapped belts.
- Superior Heat Resistance: EPDM rubber construction resists ozone, weathering, and high ambient temperatures commonly found in rooftop units and mechanical rooms.
- Reduced Vibration: Ground-form finish and raw-edge construction minimize belt-induced vibration for smoother equipment operation and reduced bearing wear.
- Optimized Flex Life: High-tensile synthetic cords carry heavy loads with minimal elongation, maintaining consistent tension and reducing maintenance intervals.
Common Questions:
Can I use a Browning BX87 to replace a standard B87 wrapped belt?
Yes, the Browning BX87 specification is fully interchangeable with standard B87 belts. The notched "X" design is a performance upgrade that offers better efficiency and is better suited for smaller pulleys where flexibility is critical.
What is the difference between pitch length and outside length for this part?
The Browning BX87 90-inch OD refers to the outer circumference of the belt. The pitch length is approximately 88.8 inches, which is the standard measurement used for calculating drive ratios and center distances.
Can this belt be used in greasy or oily environments?
The EPDM material in this 90" Type BX belt provides excellent resistance to oil and chemicals per ARPM standards, making it reliable for industrial exhaust fans and agricultural equipment.
