High-strength synthetic cords resist shock loading and stretching, while the precision-moulded cogs improve flexibility, increase air circulation and help control heat buildup during operation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMarine replacement cogged V-belt\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEffective length: \u003cstrong\u003e45-1\/2 inches\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTop width: \u003cstrong\u003e29\/64 inch\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh-strength synthetic tension cords\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLow-stretch construction for consistent performance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrecision-moulded cogs improve flexibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOpen cog design promotes cooling airflow\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRubber sidewalls maintain positive pulley contact\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDesigned for smooth, dependable 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\u003eCommonly used on compatible OMC inboard, OMC sterndrive and Volvo Penta gasoline-engine applications that specify OEM belt number \u003cstrong\u003e3852464\u003c\/strong\u003e or \u003cstrong\u003e908929\u003c\/strong\u003e.

If your engine specifies OEM belt number 3852464 or 908929, this is the direct replacement to have on hand before launch. It's also a smart onboard spare for extended cruising — a belt failure on the water can take out your raw water cooling and charging simultaneously.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMatching only the belt length is not enough. The correct width and pulley profile are equally important — an undersized belt can 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 service, pair this belt with a raw water pump impeller replacement.
