5/8 X 97
Aftermarket Belt the same size as the stock #'s mentioned at considerably less cost than the OEM belt. Used on newer 42" two blade decks. The protective cover is made of a synthetic rubber compound having excellent resistance to heat, oil and abrasion.
With so many on offer these days, it is great to have a name you can trust. This item is certainly that and will be a perfect buy. The distributor have added some great touches and this equals great value.

Not a bargain
I have bought this Rotary brand belt two times so far. The first one I bought came with a bit of material hanging off at the seam, so I was a little concerned but I installed it with no issues in the springtime. Before the end of the mowing season it broke. Next time I ordered one, I figured I ought to change brands since this one really just seemed like bottom-of-the-barrel quality. So, I ordered a Pix brand belt instead, and what I received when I opened the box was another Rotary brand belt. Slightly annoyed, I installed it anyway and hoped for the best. . . True to form, a few months later, this one shredded and broke too. I SHOULD have returned it and insisted on the one I ordered (not that I know for sure if Pix is any better).

It says on the package "Made in Taiwan" in case you are interested.

I strongly recommend that you DO NOT BUY THIS BELT unless you are willing to replace it at least once EVERY mowing season (maybe more). The original belt...

Belt was short lived
Put belt on my 42" deck craftsman rider during mid summer 2009 --went on well. Belt broke late June 2010. I have a 1/4 acre yard that gets mowed about once a week during the upstate NY mowing season. Simply did not last. I ordered a slightly more expensive belt 174883 Replacement belt made to FSP specs. For Craftsman, Poulan, Husqvarna, Wizard, more. from same amazon partner vendor & hopefully I'll have better luck. If I don't get at least a couple seasons on my next belt, than the savings not worth it & I'll reluctantly pay the big money at sears.
5 weeks
Belt shredded 5 weeks after I installed it....needless to say I will not be ordering another one.
