The pack of four offers value for households or technicians who repair multiple machines or like to keep a spare on hand.

How will these belts improve my washer's performance?

Replacing a stretched or cracked drive belt can restore normal agitation and spinning duties. These belts are manufactured from high-quality rubber with high wear resistance to reduce slippage and cracking under heat and load.

• Restores proper spin and agitate function.
• Reduces belt slip and squeal during cycles.
• Durable compound resists premature wear and cracking.
• Comes in a 4-pack for multiple repairs or spares.

Is this easy to install and which washers will it fit?

Installation is straightforward for anyone comfortable accessing the washer's motor and drum pulley—no special tools required beyond basic hand tools. The belt’s V-style profile and OEM-matching length mean it fits many common top-load models from major brands.

• Fits Maytag, Amana, Speed Queen, Crosley and similar top-load machines.
• Direct replacements for WP27001006, 38174 and other listed part numbers.
• Dimensions: 28-3/4" length, 1/2" width, V-style cross section.

What problems can replacing the belt fix?

A worn or broken belt often causes symptoms like lack of agitation, no spin, burning rubber odor, or excessive noise. Swapping in a fresh belt is an inexpensive repair that frequently returns full washer functionality without replacing major components.

• Stops burning-smell issues from slipping belts.
• Fixes washers that pump but won’t spin or won’t agitate.
• Reduces rattling and squealing caused by degraded belts.
• Cost-efficient alternative to motor or transmission replacement.
