Description
When you're out in the field on a hot summer day, there's nothing worse than watching your A/C quit working right when you need it most. A broken or slipping air conditioning belt doesn't just mean sweltering in the cab—it means reduced productivity and operator fatigue when every minute counts during critical farm operations like planting, harvest, or baling hay.
What You're Getting
- Wrapped belt construction that handles the constant cycling of A/C compressor engagement and disengagement
- 48-inch outer diameter designed specifically for International Harvester A/C systems
- PIX quality materials that resist heat, oil, and the harsh conditions found in tractor engine compartments
- Direct replacement that fits exactly like the original factory belt
Built for Real Farm Work
These belts are designed for International Harvester tractors including models like the 766, 786, 886, 966, 986, 1066, and 1086 series. Whether you're running a mid-size tractor on row crop work or operating a larger machine during harvest season, keeping that A/C compressor turning means staying comfortable and alert during those long days in the field.
Made to Last
The wrapped construction handles the unique demands of A/C compressor belts better than standard V-belts. Your compressor cycles on and off constantly, creating sudden load changes that can destroy cheaper belts. This PIX belt is built to handle those stress cycles while resisting the heat buildup that comes from engine compartment operation.
Good to Know
Before installing, check that your A/C compressor clutch engages smoothly—a dragging clutch will destroy belts quickly. Make sure the belt tensioner or adjustment mechanism is working properly, and inspect all pulleys for wear or misalignment. A quick visual check of the belt routing diagram before removal saves time and prevents installation mistakes.
