Optimise your Xpress Mini drivetrain with Factory Pro FP-O-DB3171

The Factory Pro FP-O-DB3171 Low Friction Drive Belt is matched to the Xpress Mini with 57 teeth and a 171mm length for accurate fit. Its low friction construction aims to reduce drag and support steady drivetrain performance during regular use.

Why choose a low friction belt for RC use

Reducing friction in the drive system helps retain motor power and reduces strain on gear trains. A belt like the FP-O-DB3171 can help keep throttle response sharp while lowering the rate of wear on associated components.

Installation and upkeep tips

Install the belt so it sits evenly on pulley teeth and check for parallel pulley alignment. Inspect the belt often after running sessions and replace it if you spot fraying or loss of tooth profile.

Will the FP-O-DB3171 suit converted models?

Converted cars can use this belt if pulley spacing and tooth count match. Double check dimensions after any chassis changes to ensure proper tracking.

How does belt wear show up?

Look for flattened or rounded teeth, edge fraying, or glazing on the belt surface. Any of these signs indicate reduced grip and a need for replacement.

Are there tune or upgrade notes for this belt?

Keep pulleys clean and aligned, and match belt condition to your power setup. If you upgrade motor or gearing, recheck tension and pulley alignment to suit the new loads.

Can road grime affect belt life?

Yes, grit and grime can abrade the belt surface. Rinse off coarse dirt and avoid using greasy lubricants that attract particles, which will shorten belt life.
