Continental Contitech 20042551 V-belt 5V 112 in

Product Description

The CONTINENTAL CONTITECH 20042551 is a 5V section V-belt designed for heavy-duty power transmission in industrial and commercial mechanical drive systems. Built from fiber reinforced Wingprene rubber, it delivers reliable torque transfer with resistance to oil contamination and environmental degradation. The belt measures 112 inches in outside length and carries the belt number 5V1120. It is installed by qualified mechanical technicians and HVAC service professionals on equipment requiring wedge-section belt drives. The HY-T Wedge Matchmaker Envelope construction ensures precise fit in matched or banded drive configurations.

This belt is suited for commercial HVAC units, industrial fans, blowers, compressors, and other rotating equipment that use 5V section sheaves and pulleys. The 5V profile is a narrow wedge section capable of transmitting higher loads than classical section belts in the same space envelope. It is commonly found in rooftop units, large air handlers, centrifugal fans, and pump drives where oil exposure is a concern and consistent belt tension must be maintained across the service interval.

Key Features

• 5V narrow wedge section for high-load power transmission in compact drive configurations
• Fiber reinforced Wingprene rubber construction for strength and flexibility
• Oil resistant formulation reduces belt degradation in contaminated environments
• 112 inches outside length, belt number 5V1120
• HY-T Wedge Matchmaker Envelope style supports matched-set and banded drive use

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement for industrial and commercial drive systems using 5V section sheaves and pulleys with a 112-inch outside length belt requirement.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified mechanical or HVAC technicians. Always de-energize and lock out the drive system before removing or installing belts. Never pry or roll a V-belt onto a sheave with force; use proper sheave alignment tools and adjust center distance to allow slip-on installation. After installation, set belt tension per the equipment manufacturer specifications and recheck tension after the first few hours of operation.
