Description
The Browning 3L190 is a 19-inch (outside circumference) V-belt engineered for smooth, vibration-free power transmission. Part of the specialized 3L series, its wrapped construction features a fabric jacket that surrounds the internal polyester tension cords. This design allows the belt to tolerate minor pulley misalignments and provide a "clutching" effect that is far quieter than raw-edge cogged belts—making it the industry standard for residential and commercial HVAC air handlers.
Key Features
- Wrapped Quiet Operation: The fabric cover provides a smooth interface with the sheave, eliminating the "chirp" or "squeal" often found in budget belts.
- Maximum Flexibility: Optimized for small-sheave applications where standard belts would suffer from premature cracking or heat fatigue.
- Higher Misalignment Tolerance: The wrapped exterior allows for slight offsets in pulley alignment without causing immediate belt failure.
- Code 1 Precision: Manufactured to Browning's strict "Code 1" match tolerances, ensuring consistent length and performance across every belt produced.
- Environmental Resistance: Built to handle operating temperatures from -32°F to +140°F, making it suitable for year-round rooftop HVAC use.
