Industrial V-Belt 5L Section
Vulcanized rubber transmission belt with a trapezoidal 5L cross-section, designed for power transmission in industrial machinery. It is not an endless belt or vehicle-specific, so it falls under the 'other' category. The 5L section is a non-standard size, distinguishing it from OEM automotive belts.

3V-Section Narrow V-Belt with Cotton Duck Fabric
A narrow 3V-profile V-belt made of vulcanized rubber, reinforced and covered with cotton duck textile fabric. Designed for high-speed fractional horsepower applications in HVAC systems, the cotton duck provides flexibility and wear resistance. It is classified under tariff item 4010.39.90 as 'other' transmission belting of vulcanized rubber, not meeting the endless or outside circumference criteria of the sibling item.
5VX Cogged V-Belt with Aramid Fabric Jacket
A cogged 5VX-section V-belt made from vulcanized rubber with embedded aramid textile fibers and an outer fabric jacket. The cogged design and aramid reinforcement provide superior heat and flex resistance for heavy-duty compressor applications. It falls under tariff item 4010.39.90 as 'other' transmission belting, as it is not endless or exceeds the circumference threshold of the sibling item.
Aramid Fiber Endless V-Belt for Industrial Drives
An endless transmission V-belt made of vulcanized rubber reinforced with aramid fibers, where the man-made textile fibers predominate by weight. Exceeding 20 cm in width, it is designed for high-tension industrial drives and falls under tariff item 4010.39.90 as 'Other' transmission belting.
Aramid Reinforced V-Belt 8V-40
Aramid-reinforced V-belt with an 8V-40 trapezoidal cross-section, designed for high-speed conveyor systems. The aramid cord reinforcement does not alter its classification under rubber transmission belting, as the belt remains a vulcanized rubber product. It is not an endless belt of the type specified in the sibling tariff item, so it falls under the 'other' category.
Automotive Accessory V-Belt 6PK with Nylon Jacket
An automotive accessory V-belt with a 6-rib PK-section design, made of vulcanized rubber with a nylon textile jacket. Despite its automotive use, it is classified under tariff item 4010.39.90 as 'other' transmission belting because it is not endless or exceeds the circumference limit of the sibling item. The trapezoidal multi-rib design is typical for serpentine systems.
B-Section V-Belting with Nylon Reinforcement
Endless V-belting in B-section trapezoidal profile, made of vulcanized rubber combined with nylon textile cords for tensile strength and a fabric outer layer. Used in automotive accessories and agricultural equipment for motion transmission. It is classified under tariff item 4010.39.90 as 'other' because it does not meet the outside circumference criterion of the sibling item 4010.39.10.
