{"product_id":"bando-13a1170","title":"BANDO-13A1170","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis 13A V-belt has a nominal length of 1170mm and is designed as a straightforward replacement for worn V-belts on alternator, fan, water pump and compressor drives. V-belts transmit power by wedging into the sides of the pulley groove, giving a strong grip with a compact profile.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA tough rubber body reinforced with tensile cords resists stretching, heat and oil contamination. Clean, accurate side walls help the belt seat properly in the pulley groove for smooth running, reduced slip and a longer service life.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eType: V-belt\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSection: 13A (approx. 13mm top width class)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNominal length: 1170mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePart reference: 13A1170\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCondition: new\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFitment and replacement\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eCompare the section and length with your old belt or your vehicle's parts listing before fitting. Replace the belt if you notice cracking, glazing, fraying, a shiny contact surface or a squeal under load. Set tension to the manufacturer's specification after fitting and re-check it after a short run-in period, as new V-belts can settle slightly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOn vehicles with more than one V-belt on the same drive, replace them as a matched set for even load sharing. Quality replacement parts like this help keep running costs predictable and reduce the chance of an unexpected roadside breakdown. Always follow the vehicle manufacturer's service schedule and fitting instructions, and have the work carried out by a qualified technician if you are not confident doing it yourself. Every part is checked against its part number before dispatch, so what arrives matches what you ordered. Store spare parts in a cool, dry place in their original packaging until they are needed. Our team is happy to answer questions about specifications, compatibility or ordering in larger quantities for fleet and workshop use. A correctly tensioned V-belt runs cooler and lasts longer than one that is too loose or too tight. Buying the correct part the first time saves on labour, avoids repeat jobs and gets the vehicle back to work sooner. If you are unsure about fitment, send us your vehicle registration, make, model and year before ordering and we will help you confirm the right part.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ACE Auto Parts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57615319203912,"sku":"13A1170","price":25.25,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0574\/9037\/4728\/files\/BANDO_201_86a83ffc-5a1b-4e10-87ae-3bec94ac7399.jpg?v=1793756813","url":"https:\/\/autocentreparts.co.nz\/products\/bando-13a1170","provider":"Auto Centre Parts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
