Continental Contitech 20042556 5V V-belt 67 in Ol

Product Description

The CONTINENTAL CONTITECH 20042556 is a 5V-section V-belt designed for industrial and mechanical drive applications requiring a narrow, high-horsepower wedge profile. Constructed from fiber reinforced Wingprene rubber, this belt delivers reliable torque transmission and resistance to heat, oil, and flex fatigue. It carries an outside length of 67 inches and corresponds to belt designation 5V670. The HY-T Wedge Matchmaker Envelope construction allows this belt to be matched and run in sets on multi-groove drives without the tension imbalance issues common with unmatched belts. Installation is handled by maintenance technicians and mechanical trades working on fan, blower, compressor, and pump drive systems.

This belt is suited for commercial and industrial drive systems that use 5V-section sheaves. Typical applications include HVAC air handling unit fan drives, industrial blowers, compressors, and pump assemblies where narrow-section wedge belts are specified. The 5V670 designation corresponds to standard industry sizing, making it a direct replacement for identically designated belts across drive configurations that specify a 67-inch outside length 5V belt.

Key Features

• 5V narrow wedge section for high-horsepower-to-size-ratio drive applications
• 67-inch outside length, belt number 5V670
• Fiber reinforced Wingprene rubber construction for heat, oil, and flex resistance
• HY-T Wedge Matchmaker Envelope style allows matched-set operation on multi-groove drives
• Industry-standard 5V designation for drop-in replacement on compatible sheave configurations

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 5V-section replacement belt for industrial and commercial drive systems specifying a 5V670 belt with a 67-inch outside length. Confirm sheave groove profile matches the 5V section before installation.

Installation Notes

Belt installation should be performed by qualified maintenance technicians with the drive system fully de-energized and locked out per OSHA lockout/tagout procedures. Never force the belt over sheave flanges with a pry bar, as this can damage internal cord reinforcement. Adjust drive center distance to allow belt seating before tensioning to the drive manufacturer's specification. Inspect sheave grooves for wear before installing a new belt to prevent premature failure.
