Able to operate and accept misalignment in the accessory belt drive systems (ABDS) far greater than other serpentine belts. Its flexible construction allows the belt to withstand billions of topside and backside bends resulting in a long belt life.
This belt fits perfectly, like the original, on my 2006 Scion tC with an overall length of 1936 mm. I also tried the equivalent Bando in this size but it didn't go any further and came in a smaller 1920mm. 5 Stars!
First, the belt was too short and couldn't be installed even with the belt tensioner at full travel/compression. Second, the grooves intended for the pulleys are WAY too shallow. These are just scratches, not gouges.
Fits my Highlander 2001 snugly. No more squeaks. My original lasted 18 years, who knows how long it will last. I didn't think it would be easy to install but that was after watching a few YouTube videos. All you need is the right tool and some strength.
