D&D PowerDrive 954-05001 Troy BILT Kevlar Replacement Aramid Belt 1/2 x 43

I purchased this belt after my original belt broke after 2 years of use. The original belt was around $40.00 and this one was $11.00. I decided to take a chance and purchased this belt. It has worked great so far. I would buy it again for sure. It is a well made belt and fit perfectly.

Good replacement belt, but doesnt hold up long against the loose pully on my side-of-the-road mower. Works a bit longer than expected when shreaded, though...

Fit great as desired and arrived fast and on time

broke in 30 days.... lost my money

I order two!!!! One of them lasted a week and i just install the second one

Belts fit my Troybilt neighborhood Rider, seem to last longer than oringal belts

Good belt, fits the red Craftsman R1000 rider.

Belt broke within 20 minutes of using it.

Quality at great price

Im guessing that the worn brake pad that rides up against the belt and spindle is the culprit. Im replacing that and the spindle. The spindle spins OK when off the mower, but I thought it, being old and worn, might overheat and bind. Its useful to have all these parts on hand so you dont have to wait. And thats a problem here in East Central Florida, where the grass and weeds can be knee high without cutting once a week in the summer. My original belt seemed to have mostly atomized. I didnt have to remove it and had a real struggle getting the new one on. These belts are advertised as being 53 inches long. The OEM belts are supposed to be 53 11/16 inches. I dont know if the supposed length difference makes the belt harder to get on or if the real issue was the cc30 manuals instructions that dont seem to be complete or well ordered.
