This page covers the Gates Tri-Power AX 96, a cogged classical V-belt with an AX profile and a length of 2490 mm. If you are replacing a worn belt, the most reliable approach is to match the belt you are removing rather than working from a generic size alone. The same size is also listed under Optibelt AX 96 and Dayco AX 96.
Start with the marking on the back of the old belt. Confirm the profile reads AX and the length is 2490 mm, then compare the part number to AX 96. A belt that has stretched or worn may no longer measure true, so the printed marking is the stronger reference.
Inspect the drive before ordering. Check sheave grooves for wear, look for oil or heat damage, and confirm the belt routing and tensioner position. If the drive runs multiple belts, replace them as a set so the load stays evenly shared.
Send the part number, the profile, and the length in your quote request. If the old marking is unreadable, a photo of the belt and the drive helps us confirm the right belt or suggest an equivalent.

Frequently asked questions
- How do I confirm this is the right belt for my drive?
- Read the marking on the back of the belt being replaced. It should show the AX profile and a 2490 mm length, and the part number should match AX 96.
- What should I send with my quote request?
- Send the part number AX 96, the profile AX, and the length 2490 mm. If the old belt is hard to read, include a photo of the belt and the drive.
- Should I replace more than one belt at a time?
- On a multi-belt drive, replace the belts as a set. Mixing a new belt with worn belts can change how the load is shared across the drive.
