Continental Contitech 20042703 Cogged V-belt 3L 35in

Product Description

The CONTINENTAL CONTITECH 20042703 is a fractional horsepower cogged V-belt designed for light-duty power transmission applications. Manufactured from high traction rubber, this 3L-section belt measures 35 inches outside length and 34.30 inches internal length. The cogged construction reduces heat buildup and bending stress, extending service life in smaller-diameter sheave applications. It carries abrasion resistance and ozone resistance, making it suitable for both indoor equipment and installations exposed to environmental wear. HVAC technicians, equipment service pros, and maintenance personnel install this belt on single-phase motors and small drive systems.

This belt is used in residential and light commercial applications where fractional horsepower drives are common. Typical installations include belt-driven blower assemblies, small air handlers, exhaust fans, and comparable equipment using 3L-section sheaves. The cogged profile provides improved flexibility and grip across the full operating temperature range, from -40 degrees C to 140 degrees C, covering nearly all service conditions encountered in the field.

Key Features

• Cogged construction reduces heat buildup and improves flexibility on small-diameter sheaves
• High traction rubber compound for reliable grip and reduced slippage
• Abrasion resistant and ozone resistant for extended service life
• Wide operating temperature range: -40 degrees C to 140 degrees C
• Fractional horsepower 3L-section profile fits standard 3L sheaves
• Belt number 3L350 for direct cross-reference ordering

Compatibility

Designed as a direct replacement for 3L350 fractional horsepower V-belt applications using standard 3L-section sheaves in residential and light commercial drive systems.

Installation Notes

Power down and lock out the equipment before removing the old belt or installing this one. Align sheaves to manufacturer specifications before seating the belt to avoid premature edge wear. Do not pry the belt onto the sheave with tools; release drive tension first, then seat the belt by hand. Check belt tension after initial run-in, as new belts typically require re-tensioning within the first few hours of operation.
