Description
The Browning BX71 is engineered for industrial-grade power transmission where efficiency and durability are critical. Unlike standard "B" section belts, the BX71 features a cogged (notched) profile that allows the belt to bend more easily around smaller sheaves. This increased flexibility reduces internal heat buildup—the primary cause of belt failure—resulting in a significantly longer service life.
Key Features
- Gripnotch Technology: The notched design increases flexibility and surface area, allowing for higher horsepower ratings on smaller drive diameters.
- High-Temperature EPDM: Resistant to heat, hardening, and ozone, maintaining performance in the harshest engine rooms or outdoor units.
- Raw-Edge Sidewalls: Eliminates the fabric wrap on the sides to provide a more aggressive grip, virtually eliminating belt slip.
- Precision Balanced: Manufactured to Browning’s "Code 1" match standards, ensuring that multiple belts used on a single drive share the load equally.
- Energy Efficient: Rated at 98% efficiency, transferring more power from the motor to the load compared to standard wrapped V-belts.
- Static Conducting: Meets RMA standards for static conductivity and oil resistance for safer operation in sensitive environments.
