DESCRIPTION
WORLD'S BEST (WB) BELTS
- Manufacturing, quality control certifications =-ISO-14001, ISO-9001, and IATF-16949
- 3rd Generation heavy-duty, high-twist Aramid Fiber cord for high-horsepower tensile load requirements, making it one of the strongest belts on the market.
- Higher shock load rating to date being able to withstand the power of the 400hp machines.
- Increased top cog pressure load design that increases sidewall rigidity, prevents top cog bowing, but still allows for increased rotational flexibility.
- Bottom cog uses high-modulus rubber compound (BZX1) for better heat resistance and heat dissipation.
- Bottom cog is impregnated with short Aramid Fibers for better belt-to-sheave adhesion and reduced overall belt temperature.
- Latest bottom cog design for greater rotational efficiency at full shift.
- Precision ground sidewall angle (SCUFFING) for smooth engagement, increased power transfer and lower operating belt temperature.
- Aramid Fiber cord, versus polyester, wraps over bottom cogs for increased bottom cog strength.
- Increased cord pop-out resistance.
EXTREME (EX) BELTS:
- EX belts have been developed with a high-temperature compound called DUMAX for added strength, flexibility, and heat resistance.
- Ultra-strong Aramid Fiber cord that can handle/carry more than 10,000 pounds of tension without stretching or breaking.
- Higher strength compared to OEM and aftermarket drive belts
- Delivers exceptional 'belt squeeze' for more tuning possibilities and less slippage.
- Maximum under-cord stiffness allows the belt to flex for rotational efficiency and cooler running temperatures
- Built for high temps, extreme abuse, and excessive shock load.

- Heat damage or belt wear
- Improper installation or break-in
Drive Belt Failures
Hour Glassing
Description: A narrow or worn section in the center of the belt.
Cause: When the drive clutch is spinning and the belt remains stationary.
Status: Not Warrantied
Cord Pop Out
Description: When the center cord separates from the belt.
Cause: Improper bonding.
Status: Warrantied
Flex Crack
Cause: The belt was bent/flexed improperly.
Status: Not Warrantied
Glazing
Description: The sides of the belt look shiny and overheated.
Cause: Belt slippage, overheating from improper clutching and/or abuse.
Status: Not Warrantied
Tearing
Description: The drive belt appears to have hit something and is starting to tear or has torn.
Cause: Worn or damaged clutches causing the clutches not to shift properly. Excessive use of brakes or jumping. The belt will bow and can catch the inner clutch housing.
Status: Not Warrantied
Delamination
Description: Separation of the belt layers.
Cause: Improper bonding of the belt layers.
Status: Warrantied
Broken Belt
Cause: Shock loading the belt will cause breakage. Driving at high speeds (overdrive) for long periods of time. Excessive engagement RPM. Improper gear ratio, clutch center-to-center distance. Jammed or locked drivetrain.
Status: Not Warrantied
Disintegration
Description: The drive belt has separated into pieces.
Cause: Can be caused by different belt conditions such as hour glassing, glazing, flex cracks, or misalignment. Plugged or restricted air intake to clutch housing.
Excessive heat build-up is the main cause of disintegration.
Status: Not Warrantied
