Dayco Expands CVT Belt Line with POWER® TRX Belt for Extreme Performance Applications

Advanced belt technology engineered for highly modified or turbocharged snowmobiles, SXS and ATV/UTV applications

NORTH BRANCH, MN – September 11, 2026 – (Motor Sports NewsWire) – Dayco, a leading OE and aftermarket drive systems supplier for the automotive, industrial and powersports industries, is debuting the new POWER® TRX belt at Sno-Baron’s Hay Days, one of the largest powersports gatherings in the U.S.

POWER TRX rounds out the company’s CVT belt offering as the highest-performing belt in the Dayco POWER® lineup.

Launching with more than 20 part numbers, TRX is engineered specifically for extreme enthusiasts running highly modified and turbo-rated machines where increased horsepower, heat and demanding riding conditions push CVT belt performance to the limit. The belt has applications for a number of popular vehicle models from Arctic Cat, Polaris, Ski-Doo, Bombardier, Yamaha, CF Moto and Lynx.

POWER TRX and the rest of the Dayco POWER line will be on display at Hay Days at Dayco booth BF3. In addition, Dayco is giving away a limited number of Dayco POWER TRX t-shirts to visitors who like and follow the brand on Instagram.

The Dayco POWER® Portfolio

For powersports dealers and distributors, TRX completes a performance-focused belt portfolio designed to make application matching easier—from stock machines to highly modified builds for both snowmobiles and all-terrain vehicles, expanding Dayco’s ability to serve the high-performance end of the powersports market. The Dayco POWER lineup includes:

  • POWER® HP™ – Designed for stock, low- to mid-horsepower applications, including golf carts and farm utility vehicles that do not exceed 350cc.
  • POWER® HPX™ – Engineered for mid- to high-horsepower machines and minimal modifications with engines at 350cc-600cc.
  • POWER® XTX™ – Developed for high-horsepower 600c-800c engines with moderate performance upgrades.
  • POWER® TRX™ – The newest and highest-performance option, engineered for highly modified and turbo-rated applications with 800+cc engines.
  • POWER® RPX™ – Built specifically for snow-racing applications.

“Our portfolio gives powersports distributors a simple way to match belt technology to the machine’s horsepower, level of modification and intended use,” said Tyler Samagalski, Director of Industrial and Performance Products at Dayco N.A. “Dayco’s existing XTX belt, for example, is designed for high-performance applications up to 120 hp and engines up to 800cc, while our new TRX belt targets those extreme horsepower and turbo applications with extensive modifications over 800cc.”

TRX Engineered for Extreme Demands

The Dayco POWER TRX belt is designed with an advanced construction and embedded aramid cord for enhanced durability. It also features specialized fabrics on the inner and outer tooth surfaces, which contribute to the belts ability to shift power, provide high thermal stability and resist wear. Its overall construction is designed to help the belt transfer maximum power while resisting the heat and wear associated with extreme CVT operation.

  • Proprietary Formulation – Custom-engineered textiles and protective agents help minimize glazing and slipping.
  • Advanced Dual-Cog Design – Enhances belt flexibility to provide smooth, reliable pulley operation.
  • Optimized Belt Compounds – Delivers the ideal balance of rigidity and flexibility under heavy loads.

Whether a rider has added a turbo, increased horsepower or significantly modified the drivetrain, TRX gives dealers an opportunity to match belt technology to the application rather than taking a one-belt-fits-all approach, as well as showcase a clear product progression for a stronger offering across all applications.
