Continental Contitech 20042626 5VX Cogged V-belt 115 in

Product Description

The CONTINENTAL CONTITECH 20042626 is a cogged V-belt in the 5VX section, also known by belt number 5VX1150, with an outside length of 115 inches. Constructed from fiber reinforced Wingprene rubber, this belt delivers oil resistance and flexibility suited to demanding drive applications. The cogged profile reduces bending stress and heat buildup, allowing the belt to run cooler and last longer on driven equipment. It is used by mechanical and HVAC technicians wherever a high-capacity wedge-profile drive belt is required.

This belt is designed for use in industrial, commercial, and heavy-duty HVAC drive systems where a 5VX-section cogged belt is specified. The HY-T Wedge Matchmaker cogged style is well suited to serpentine and v-drive configurations on fans, blowers, compressors, and similar rotating equipment. Installations requiring matched belt sets should confirm the 5VX1150 belt number designation for consistent drive performance across multiple-belt drives.

Key Features

• 5VX cogged section for reduced flex fatigue and cooler operation compared to standard wrapped belts
• Fiber reinforced Wingprene rubber construction for durability and oil resistance
• Oil resistant material helps maintain belt integrity in environments with incidental lubricant exposure
• HY-T Wedge Matchmaker cogged style supports high-torque, high-speed drive applications
• 115-inch outside length corresponds to belt number 5VX1150 for easy cross-reference

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement for drive systems specifying a 5VX-section cogged V-belt with a 115-inch outside length. Verify sheave groove profile and center distance against the 5VX1150 belt specification before installation.

Installation Notes

Belt replacement is typically performed by licensed HVAC technicians or industrial mechanics. Always de-energize and lock out the drive unit before removing guards or handling belts. Adjust drive center distance to allow belt installation without forcing the belt over sheave flanges, then tension according to the equipment manufacturer's deflection specification. Inspect sheave grooves for wear before installing a new belt.
