Garden tractor transmission belts
General information
PIX Lawn & Garden belts are available in various constructions, such as clad V-belts (standard, tape, hexagonal, dry casing, Kevlar force-bearing thread, etc.), narrow-profile toothed V-belts (normal, tape, raw edge smooth), Poly-V belts and double-toothed toothed belts. In this product group, you will find what you are looking for if you are looking for a special transmission belt for a garden tractor and know the manufacturer's part number.
The material, design and load capacity of the power transmission belts used on garden tractors do not necessarily match the parameters of standard transmission belts. If you are familiar with the length and design of the transmission belt used on the garden tractor, you can also choose from our standard V-belts in the V-belts menu.
However, the same length and seemingly identical design may not cover the same strap. In the case of part number belts, the type and design of the force carrier and/or rubber core and/or coating is often different. Bottom line: Even if your itemized transmission belt looks the same as your average V-belt, it may not be... But it is possible... If it's actually a standard transmission belt, you can buy it much cheaper than the number of parts... But if it doesn't, it can quickly break down... Order transmission belts that deviate from the original manufacturer's specifications at your own risk.
What does OEM mean?
Original Equipment Manufacturer. A machine manufacturer sells a part purchased from the original manufacturer as an assembly and finished part under its own brand. For example, John Deere does not have its own belt production, but it is still possible to buy John Deere brand belts. In this case, the factory has the product manufactured by someone else and sells it under its own brand. The OEM manufacturer makes the belt for the machine builder.
What does an aftermarket belt mean?
The aftermarket belt product can be manufactured at an OEM manufacturer or in another manufacturing plant. If it is made by the original manufacturer, it differs from the original strap in that it does not have the brand name on it! It must be made with parameters corresponding to the original belt, but the manufacturer of the machine does not check and certify this product. An aftermarket belt can be perfectly original, or it can happen that some of its parameters do not match the original belt product...
