A 3/8" × 35" belt

The profile and length the listing states, for part 954-0430. A belt that is half an inch too long slips in heavy snow, so match the part number, not just the size.

What it has going for it

What changes in heavy snow

3/8" × 35". When the engine runs but the auger barely turns in heavy snow, a stretched or glazed belt is a usual suspect. Match the part number, not just the length.

Will it fit your model?

The listing names a 3/8" × 35" profile, part 954-0430 and MTD, Troy-Bilt, Cub Cadet and Craftsman machines.

Auger and drive belts look alike and aren't interchangeable. Match the part number from your manual, not just the length.

Great for you if…

The auger slows down or stalls when the snow gets heavy
Your machine is from MTD

Skip it if…

You don't own an MTD, a Troy-Bilt or a Cub Cadet machine
You'd rather wait for buyer reviews: none are captured for this listing yet
Your manual names a different part number

Price and availability

On Sep 30, 2026, that price put it around the middle of the 10 belts we have a recent price for.

A part that doesn't fit is a return, not a bargain, so match the part number before the price.

Our take

The verdict

The Honoyam 954-0430 Auger Drive Belt is about a 3/8" × 35" profile, and it doesn't pretend to be more. No buyer reviews yet, so this Honoyam auger belt has to win you over on paper. The catch with the Honoyam: it only fits the machines it lists, so check your manual before you order. We'd pick the Honoyam 954-0430 Auger Drive Belt if the auger slows down or stalls when the snow gets heavy; otherwise, put it next to the GnDaYoug 954-04050 Auger Drive Belt first.

The one thing we'd check first

Before the Honoyam 954-0430 Auger Drive Belt goes in your cart, check your model number: it is sold as part 954-0430 for MTD and Troy-Bilt, and fit is model-specific.

Before you buy

Your model number

Look for the plate on the frame, usually under the handle or behind the engine, and copy the model and serial numbers into your phone.

Belt routing

Take a photo of the old belt before you take it off. The routing around the idler is the bit everyone forgets.

Do it in October

Parts are easy to fit in a dry garage and miserable mid-storm. Our parts guide lists what is worth stocking.

Frequently asked questions

Is the Honoyam 954-0430 Auger Drive Belt any good?

We rate it 7.0/10 (good). The rating comes from its documented listing alone, as no customer-review record is captured yet.

How wide does the Honoyam 954-0430 Auger Drive Belt clear, and how far does it throw?

The listing states a 35 in clearing width. Those are the seller's best-case numbers: wet, heavy snow and the packed ridge the plough leaves both cut the throw short. Our clearing-width planner counts how many passes your driveway takes at that width.

Will the Honoyam 954-0430 Auger Drive Belt fit my snow blower?

Only if your manual agrees. A listing that names a long list of compatible machines is the seller's claim, not proof of fit: match the part number in your operator manual before you order.

What do you get with the Honoyam 954-0430 Auger Drive Belt?

Its listing states a 3/8" × 35" profile. These are the seller's figures, not our measurements: whether it fits your exact machine is worth confirming first.

What should I check before ordering the Honoyam 954-0430 Auger Drive Belt?

Your model number: look for the plate on the frame, usually under the handle or behind the engine, and copy the model and serial numbers into your phone. Belt routing: take a photo of the old belt before you take it off. The routing around the idler is the bit everyone forgets. Do it in October: parts are easy to fit in a dry garage and miserable mid-storm. Our parts guide lists what is worth stocking.

Where can I buy the Honoyam 954-0430 Auger Drive Belt?

We link to the exact listing on Amazon, where today's price, stock and seller apply. It is an affiliate link, and it has no effect on the rating.

Have you used the Honoyam 954-0430 Auger Drive Belt yourselves?

No, we haven't used it ourselves. Everything on this page comes from its listing, read line by line and weighed the way our methodology page explains.
