High-strength synthetic cords resist stretching and shock loads, while the moulded cog profile improves flexibility and airflow to help control operating heat. Its rubber sidewalls maintain positive contact with the pulley grooves for smooth, dependable power transfer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMarine-grade cogged V-belt\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEffective length: \u003cstrong\u003e45 inches \/ 114.3 cm\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTop width: \u003cstrong\u003e29\/64 inch \/ 11.5 mm\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh-strength synthetic tension cords\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLow-stretch construction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrecision-moulded cogs improve flexibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOpen cog profile increases cooling airflow\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRubber sidewalls provide positive pulley contact\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDesigned for reliable accessory-drive power transfer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupplied as one replacement belt\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eEngine Compatibility\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for selected OMC sterndrive and Volvo Penta marine-engine applications that specify one of the corresponding OEM belt numbers.

If your engine specifies OEM belt number 914787, 3858462, 960336 or 3853331, this is the direct replacement to have ready before launch. It also makes a practical onboard spare for extended passages — a belt failure can simultaneously take out raw water cooling and battery charging.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBelt length alone is not enough for a correct match. The width and pulley profile must also be correct, or the belt may sit too deeply in the groove, slip under load and wear prematurely. Always verify the OEM belt number and pulley configuration before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor a complete cooling system refresh, pair this belt with a raw water pump impeller service.
