Continental Contitech 20039465 Ax Cogged V-belt AX26

Product Description

The CONTINENTAL CONTITECH 20039465 is a Torque-Flex cogged V-belt in the AX section profile, designed for power transmission in HVAC, agricultural, and industrial equipment. Built with fiber-reinforced Vytracord construction, this belt delivers durability and flex resistance across a wide operating temperature range of -40 degrees F to 140 degrees F. The cogged underside reduces bending resistance, improves heat dissipation, and increases flexibility on smaller sheave diameters. Oil-resistant materials make it suitable for environments where belt contact with lubricants is a concern. HVAC technicians, equipment mechanics, and service professionals install this belt as a direct replacement or upgrade in belt-driven systems requiring an AX-series belt.

The AX26 belt is commonly used in residential and light commercial HVAC units, blower assemblies, compressor drives, and general-purpose machinery that use standard AX-section sheaves. It is suited for installations where a cogged belt is preferred over a smooth classical A-section belt to reduce slippage and heat buildup on variable-pitch or fixed-pitch drives. The oil-resistant compound makes it a practical choice for mechanical rooms and equipment pads where incidental fluid exposure is possible.

Key Features

• AX section cogged profile reduces bending resistance and improves efficiency on small-diameter sheaves
• Fiber-reinforced Vytracord construction for high tensile strength and dimensional stability
• Oil-resistant compound suitable for environments with incidental lubricant exposure
• Wide operating temperature range from -40 degrees F to 140 degrees F
• 28.2 inches outside length with 27.30 inches internal length for precise fitment
• Torque-Flex design for reduced vibration and quieter operation in belt-driven equipment

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement for belt-driven HVAC blowers, fans, and light commercial or industrial equipment requiring an AX26 cogged V-belt with a 28.2-inch outside length and AX section profile.

Installation Notes

Belt replacement should be performed by a qualified HVAC technician or equipment mechanic. Disconnect and lock out all power to the unit before removing the belt guard or accessing the drive assembly. Inspect sheaves for wear, misalignment, and proper groove profile before installing the new belt, and adjust drive tension to manufacturer specifications for the equipment model being serviced. Never pry a belt onto a sheave or run mismatched belt sections on the same drive.
