8TEN Drive Belt

This belt is designed as a direct replacement for several OEM part numbers used by Ariens, Husqvarna, Poulan, and AYP. Because mower models vary significantly, the most reliable way to confirm compatibility is to compare the part number of your current belt against the OEM numbers this 8TEN belt is engineered to replace.

This is a standard V-belt with a length of 92.5 inches and a width of 0.5 inches. It is critical to measure your existing belt or check your owner's manual to ensure these dimensions match your specific drive system requirements.

The belt is constructed from durable NR rubber and reinforced with a polyester cord and Type 1 fabric cotton. This combination provides the necessary tensile strength to handle the constant tension and heat generated during regular lawn maintenance without stretching or snapping prematurely.

This specific component is classified as a drive belt, meaning it is intended for the transmission drive system of your ride-on tractor. It is not designed for use as a mower deck belt, which typically requires different specifications and profiles.

While no specialized proprietary tools are required, you will need standard shop tools to remove the belt guards and release the tensioner pulley. It is helpful to have a socket set and a pry bar or tensioner tool on hand to safely maneuver the belt into place.
