5L380 FHP V-Belt, 38 in Outside Length, 21/32 in Top Width, 3/8" Thickness, 1 Ribs

The DAYTON - 5L380 is a Fractional Horsepower (FHP) V-Belt, a type of power transmission belt commonly used in industrial applications. This belt is intended for use in the transmission of power between pulleys in machinery, which may contribute to smoother operation and potential reduction in downtime. Its construction is designed with durability considerations for usage scenarios common across industries like manufacturing, automotive among others.

Key Features of the DAYTON - 5L380 FHP V-Belt:

• Belt Material: The belt is made from gum rubber with a fabric cover and polyester cords. These materials are chosen considering their known properties related to durability, flexibility, resistance against environmental factors like heat or chemicals.
• Operating Temperature: It is rated for operation within a temperature range from -22 Degrees F up to 194 Degrees F.
• Number of Ribs: The presence of one rib on the belt aims at enhancing grip while potentially distributing load evenly that could improve power transmission efficiency.
• Outside Length: The outside length measures at 38 inches; this measurement is intended for compatibility with certain industrial applications including but not limited to machinery drive systems.
• V-Belt Section: Classified under the "5L" section indicating its dimensions compatibility with certain machinery.
• Resistance Properties: The belt demonstrates some degree of resistance towards heat; oil; static conductive elements based on standard testing conditions. This might make it suitable for certain challenging environments depending upon specific use cases
