Continental Contitech 20042056 V-belt Section B B38 41in

Product Description

The CONTINENTAL CONTITECH 20042056 is a Section B classical V-belt designed for industrial and commercial power transmission applications. Built with Wingprene rubber-impregnated fabric, this belt delivers reliable flex and load capacity across a wide operating temperature range of -40 degrees F to 284 degrees F. With an outside length of 41.0 inches and an internal length of 39.80 inches, it fits standard B-section sheaves and pulleys. The B38 designation identifies it within the classical belt numbering system. HVAC technicians, mechanical contractors, and equipment service professionals install this belt on blower assemblies, fan drives, and auxiliary equipment drives.

This V-belt is used in residential and light commercial HVAC systems, industrial fan and blower drives, pump drives, and other belt-driven rotating equipment that uses B-section grooved sheaves. The HY-T Matchmaker construction is engineered for use in matched sets or as a single-belt drive on standard B-groove pulleys. It is suited for equipment requiring consistent belt tension and low stretch over extended service intervals.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified HVAC technician or mechanical service professional. Always disconnect and lock out power to the drive equipment before removing or installing belts. Never pry a belt over a sheave under tension; relieve drive tension by adjusting the motor mount or idler before installation. After installing the belt, set tension per equipment manufacturer specifications and re-check tension after the first few hours of operation.
