{"product_id":"bando-3pk850","title":"BANDO 3PK850","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe 3PK850 is a 3-rib multi-ribbed drive belt with an effective length of 850mm, built to transfer engine power smoothly to your vehicle's front-end accessories. Multi-ribbed belts, also called serpentine or poly-V belts, drive components such as the alternator, power steering pump, air conditioning compressor and, on many engines, the water pump.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA durable rubber compound resists heat, oil and ozone, while high-strength tensile cords limit stretch. The precisely formed ribs mesh cleanly with the pulley grooves for quiet running and reliable power transfer under load.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProfile: PK (multi-ribbed, 3.56mm rib pitch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNumber of ribs: 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEffective length: 850mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eApproximate width: 10.7mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePart reference: 3PK850\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCondition: new\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFitment and replacement\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eMatch the rib count and length to your old belt or to your vehicle's parts listing before fitting. A belt even a few millimetres off can upset tensioner travel and cause slip or early wear. Common signs a belt needs replacing include squealing on start-up, visible cracks across the ribs, fraying edges, glazing or a battery warning light. It is good practice to inspect the tensioner and idler pulleys at the same time and replace them if they are noisy or rough.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePairing this part with a general inspection of the surrounding components is good practice, as related parts often wear at a similar rate. Stocked in New Zealand and dispatched quickly, so your vehicle spends less time off the road. 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. 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. Quality replacement parts like this help keep running costs predictable and reduce the chance of an unexpected roadside breakdown. Fitting a new belt is a low-cost way to restore charging performance, steering assist and air conditioning output. Make sure the belt is routed correctly around every pulley before releasing the tensioner, and use a belt routing diagram if one is available under the bonnet.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ACE Auto Parts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57615318319176,"sku":"3PK850","price":23.76,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0574\/9037\/4728\/files\/BANDO_000e160d-1b18-4bfe-a0d9-59d48e47ff1d.png?v=1793756764","url":"https:\/\/autocentreparts.co.nz\/products\/bando-3pk850","provider":"Auto Centre Parts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
