Product details
Stocked as part FB181, this flat belt is built to Royal's Style 12 pattern for uprights that call for that belt size.
The belt seats over the motor pulley and the brushroll shaft, and it's the tension it holds there that keeps the brush spinning fast enough to work grit and pet hair loose from the carpet pile rather than just pushing suction over the top of it. A snug, correctly tensioned belt is what separates a vacuum that grooms carpet from one that just glides across it.
- Part: FB181, Style 12 flat brushroll belt
- Fits: Royal uprights specifying Style 12
- Function: drives the brushroll for carpet agitation
Flat belts glaze and stretch with age rather than snapping outright, so a brush that's turning noticeably slower than it used to, or has gone quiet and stopped, is usually the belt rather than the motor. Match the old belt's length against this one before installing if you're not certain of the style, since Royal has used several belt patterns across its upright lineup over the years.
