Product details
This is the geared drive belt for Hoover PowerDrive Pet swivel uprights, part 440012455, also stamped 3M-225-6.4. It fits the UH74200, UH74205, UH74210, UH74210PC and UH74215.
A geared belt does not stretch its way to failure the way a flat rubber belt does. It holds full brushroll speed until the teeth wear or shear, and then it simply goes. The motor still runs, the brushroll stops, and carpet pickup collapses while hard floors seem more or less fine. That combination is the giveaway.
Turn the brushroll by hand with the machine unplugged. If it spins freely with no resistance at all, the belt is done. Clear the hair off the roller ends before fitting the new one, since a bound roller is what killed the last belt more often than not.
