Manufactured from high traction rubber, this belt carries the industry designation 3L200, indicating a 3L cross-section with a 20.0 inch outside length and a 19.30 inch internal length. The cogged construction reduces bending resistance, which improves flexibility around smaller sheave diameters and helps manage heat buildup during operation. It weighs 0.06 pounds, making it a compact single-belt solution suited for residential and light commercial equipment. HVAC technicians, appliance service techs, and general equipment mechanics are the primary installers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 3L200 belt is commonly found in fractional horsepower drives on residential HVAC units, fans, blowers, washing machines, and small power tools. The 3L section is a standard fractional horsepower profile used across a wide range of OEM and aftermarket sheave configurations. Its abrasion-resistant and ozone-resistant compound makes it appropriate for both indoor mechanical rooms and outdoor equipment enclosures where environmental exposure is a factor. This belt is sold and packaged as a single unit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCogged design reduces bending stiffness and heat generation on small-diameter sheaves\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh traction rubber compound provides reliable grip under load\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAbrasion-resistant construction extends service life in dusty or dirty environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOzone-resistant material helps prevent cracking in outdoor or ozone-exposed installations\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRated for operating temperatures from -40 degrees F to 284 degrees F (-40 degrees C to 140 degrees C)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStandard 3L200 belt number for straightforward cross-reference and replacement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement for fractional horsepower drives requiring a 3L-section cogged V-belt with a 20.0 inch outside length.

Always disconnect and lock out power to the equipment before removing belt guards or accessing the drive sheaves. Adjust sheave center distance to allow belt installation without forcing the belt over the sheave flange, then tension according to the equipment manufacturer's deflection specification. Inspect sheave grooves for wear or damage before installing a new belt, as a worn sheave will shorten belt service life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBelt Section\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3L\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBelt Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Fractional Horsepower Cogged V-Belt\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBelt Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3L200\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutside Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 20.0 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInternal Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 19.30 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: High Traction Rubber\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eResistance Features\u003c\/strong\u003e: Abrasion Resistant, Ozone Resistant\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Working Temperature\u003c\/strong\u003e: 140 degrees C (284 degrees F)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMinimum Working Temperature\u003c\/strong\u003e: -40 degrees C (-40 degrees F)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.06 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: CONTINENTAL CONTITECH\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 20042688\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"CONTINENTAL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51562826891570,"sku":"20042688","price":18.86,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/d6bd597928a9fc202a006b907a2e5570.jpg?v=1786485208","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/continental-contitech-20042688-cogged-v-belt-3l-20-in","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
