.940 BELT BYPASS SECTION

The Barnes .940 Belt Bypass Section is a precision serpentine belt component designed for high-performance engine applications where auxiliary systems need isolation from the main accessory drive. This bypass section allows you to run a dedicated serpentine belt path while bypassing one or more pulleys, which is crucial for optimizing performance in race engines and modified vehicles.

Engineered from a reinforced elastomer, the .940-inch belt bypass section maintains consistent belt tension and prevents slack in the drive path while the serpentine belt wraps around it. Its design is intended to eliminate parasitic drag from components like air conditioning compressors or power steering pumps during high-load engine operation.

This bypass section is most beneficial for serious enthusiasts, drag racers, and professional engine builders who are constructing custom accessory drive systems or simplifying underhood configurations. With its compatibility with common V-belt and serpentine pulley setups, it is an essential component for optimizing accessory drive configurations.
