This V-belt is a certified genuine OEM replacement part for a snowblower engine. A V-belt is essentially just a loop of rubber but it is one of the most essential parts of the engine. The V-belt loops around a series of pulleys, and as the drive pulley is turned by the engine, the V-belt transfers that motion and turns the other pulleys. This allows the engine to run more efficiently. While an engine is running, the V-belt is constantly in motion, meaning that it receives a lot of wear. Over time, the rubber material will begin to fray, and if left too long, it will eventually slip or even snap. If the V-belt breaks, the transmission will no longer run and the auger blades will not turn. Therefore, it is important to check the V-belt's condition frequently. As soon as it begins to fray, replace it using a set of socket wrenches. Be sure to follow the owner's manual as a guide for how to loop the new belt. This replacement V-belt is compatible with MTD, Troy-Bilt, and Craftsman snowblowers and it comes sourced from its original manufacturer. This part ships individually.
