Bando USA 7PK1700 Serpentine Belt 7‑Rib 1700mm — OEM‑Quality EPDM, Reinforced Cords

The Bando USA 7PK1700 is an OEM-grade 7-rib, 1700mm serpentine belt engineered from EPDM rubber for long-lasting, heat-resistant drive performance.

Bando has over a century of experience making rubber drive components and supplies many top automakers worldwide. The 7PK1700 belt is manufactured to meet original equipment tolerances — including precision double-ground ribs and reinforced tensile cords — so it fits and performs like the factory part for compatible Acura, Honda and Nissan vehicles. Built from EPDM compound, this belt resists heat and wear better than older rubber formulations and is produced to the same quality standards used for OEM supply.

How does the 7PK1700 differ from a generic serpentine belt?

The 7PK1700 is produced using OEM-level processes, not simple molding. That means the rib profile is precision ground twice to match factory geometry and ensure consistent contact with pulleys. Internal tensile cords provide high strength for horsepower loads without excessive stretching.

• Double-ground ribs for accurate pulley engagement
• EPDM compound for improved heat and wear resistance
• High-strength tensile cords to limit elongation under load
• Manufactured to the same standards Bando supplies to automakers

Will this belt fit my vehicle and what engines does it serve?

The 7PK1700 is a 7-rib belt with a length of 1700 mm (66.9 inches) designed for a range of Acura, Honda and Nissan models across several years. Always confirm fitment by comparing the belt length and rib count to your original or checking application guides for your model and year.

• Size: 7 ribs × 1700 mm (66.9 inches)
• Common fits include Acura ILX (2013–2015) and RSX (2005–2006)
• Honda Civic compatible years include 2012–2015 models
• Nissan compatibility: Altima (2007–2013), Maxima (2009–2014), Murano (2009–2014)

What are the durability and performance advantages of this Bando belt?

This belt is compounded from high-strength synthetic rubber and assembled with robust tensile cords to resist wear and maintain tension. Because Bando uses EPDM and precision manufacturing, the belt tolerates higher under-hood temperatures and provides longer service intervals compared with older materials or low-end aftermarket options.

• EPDM rubber resists heat-related hardening and cracking
• Ground ribs maintain proper profile for reduced slip and noise
• Reinforced cords carry high loads without premature stretching
• Produced under one premium standard used for OEM supply

Who this is for: The Bando USA 7PK1700 is ideal for owners and technicians who need a direct-fit, OEM-quality serpentine belt for mid-2000s to mid-2010s Acura, Honda, and Nissan models. It suits anyone replacing a worn factory belt who wants improved heat resistance, accurate rib profiling for quieter operation, and longevity consistent with original manufacturer expectations. If you maintain performance and reliability as priorities for daily drivers, commuter cars, or light-duty vehicles, this belt is engineered to match those needs.
