It is constructed with high strength synthetic cords engineered to resist shock loading, a common stress point on marine engines that see sudden throttle changes and vibration. The low stretch properties of the cord construction help the belt maintain consistent tension and uniform performance over its service life, reducing the slipping and glazing that shorten the life of lower quality belts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis V-Belt has an effective length of 45 1\/2 inches (115.6 cm) and a top width of 29\/64 inch (11.5 mm), sized to drive accessory pulleys such as the alternator, water pump, or power steering pump on the engines it fits. It is a direct fit replacement for OMC stern drive and OMC inboard applications, as well as Volvo Penta stern drive applications that use the equivalent cross-referenced belt. Each belt ships as a single unit, ready to install in place of a worn or cracked factory belt.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sierra\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e 18-15455\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Synthetic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBelt Style:\u003c\/strong\u003e V-Belt\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEffective Length:\u003c\/strong\u003e 45 1\/2 inches (115.6 cm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTop Width:\u003c\/strong\u003e 29\/64 inch (11.5 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Dimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 45.5 inches long x 0.74 inch wide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompatible Devices:\u003c\/strong\u003e Marine engine, stern drive\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIncluded Components:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1 V-Belt\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.26 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFitment\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOMC stern drive\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOMC inboard\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVolvo Penta stern drive\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eReplaces (OEM)\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOMC 908929\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVolvo Penta 3852464\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat engines does the Sierra 18-15455 V-Belt fit?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Sierra 18-15455 V-Belt fits OMC stern drive and OMC inboard applications, as well as Volvo Penta stern drive applications that call for the equivalent belt.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the Sierra 18-15455 a direct OEM replacement?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, part number 18-15455 replaces OMC 908929 and Volvo Penta 3852464, so it can be installed in place of either OEM belt.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the effective length of this V-belt?\u003c\/strong\u003e The effective length is 45 1\/2 inches, or 115.6 cm.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow wide is the top of the belt?\u003c\/strong\u003e The top width of the Sierra 18-15455 V-Belt is 29\/64 inch, or 11.5 mm.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat material is the Sierra 18-15455 V-Belt made from?\u003c\/strong\u003e It is made with high strength synthetic cords designed to resist shock loading on marine engine accessory drives.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes this belt stretch or slip over time?\u003c\/strong\u003e No, the synthetic cord construction of the 18-15455 has low stretch properties, which helps the belt hold consistent tension and deliver uniform performance over its life.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow much does the Sierra 18-15455 V-Belt weigh?\u003c\/strong\u003e This V-Belt weighs 0.26 pounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat comes in the box with this part?\u003c\/strong\u003e The 18-15455 ships as a single V-Belt, ready to install as a replacement for a worn factory belt.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I use this belt on both OMC and Volvo Penta engines?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, the same 18-15455 belt is the correct replacement for the listed OMC stern drive, OMC inboard, and Volvo Penta stern drive applications since it cross-references to both OMC 908929 and Volvo Penta 3852464.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow do I know if my old belt needs replacing?\u003c\/strong\u003e Cracking, glazing, fraying, or visible stretch on the factory belt are signs it should be replaced with a belt such as the Sierra 18-15455 to restore proper accessory drive tension.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sierra","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48988088762587,"sku":"SIE-18-15455","price":11.55,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0839\/7586\/4539\/files\/SIE-18-15455_lg__63512.1722490817.500.750.jpg?v=1785188141","url":"https:\/\/www.goodvibesmarina.com\/products\/sierra-18-15455-v-belt-45-1-2-in-replaces-omc-908929-volvo-penta-3852464-fits-omc-stern-drive-inboard-and-volvo-penta-gas-engines","provider":"Good Vibes Marina","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
