Continental Contitech 20042552 V-belt 5V 118 in

Product Description

The CONTINENTAL CONTITECH 20042552 is a 5V section V-belt constructed from fiber reinforced Wingprene rubber, engineered for demanding power transmission applications. Carrying the belt number 5V1180, it measures 118 inches in outside length and follows the HY-T Wedge Matchmaker Envelope profile. The fiber reinforced Wingprene compound resists heat, oil, and flexing fatigue, making it well suited for the high-torque, high-cycle duty common in industrial HVAC, refrigeration, and mechanical equipment rooms. Licensed HVAC mechanics and industrial maintenance technicians are the typical installers for this class of belt.

This 5V wedge belt is used in commercial and industrial settings where matched belt drives are required for large fan and blower assemblies, compressors, and pump drives. The HY-T Wedge Matchmaker Envelope designation indicates it is part of a matched-set series, meaning multiple belts of this part number can be run together on multi-groove sheaves with consistent load sharing. Typical applications include rooftop units, air handling units, cooling towers, and centrifugal equipment requiring precise belt matching across a drive bank.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified HVAC technician or mechanical maintenance professional. Always de-energize and lock out the drive system before removing or installing belts. Never pry or force the belt over sheave flanges; use a sheave alignment tool and verify proper tension with a tension gauge after seating. Inspect sheave grooves for wear and misalignment before fitting new belts.
