Built to the 3L belt section standard, it measures 49 inches in outside length and 48.30 inches in internal length. The belt is constructed from high traction rubber, delivering consistent grip and flexibility across a range of small motor and equipment drives. HVAC technicians, equipment service pros, and maintenance mechanics install this belt on fan drives, blowers, and other fractional horsepower equipment where a 3L-section belt is specified.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis belt is suited for residential and light commercial applications involving small motor-driven equipment. Common install scenarios include evaporator fan assemblies, condenser fan drives, furnace blower systems, and general-purpose machinery requiring a 3L490 fractional horsepower V-belt. The 3L490 designation is the standard cross-reference identifier for this belt, and it is widely encountered in HVAC service, appliance repair, and light industrial maintenance contexts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3L belt section — standard fractional horsepower profile for small motor drives\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e49 inches outside length (48.30 inches internal length) for precise fit on specified pulleys\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh traction rubber construction for reliable grip and extended flex life\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBelt number 3L490 — cross-references to standard industry sizing charts\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSold individually — single-belt packaging suitable for direct replacement service calls\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement for equipment requiring a 3L-section fractional horsepower V-belt with a 49-inch outside length. Verify pulley groove profile and center-to-center distance against the 3L490 specification before installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation is typically performed by HVAC technicians, appliance repair technicians, or general maintenance mechanics. Always disconnect and lock out electrical power to the equipment before removing or installing a drive belt. Relieve drive tension using the appropriate adjustment mechanism before seating the belt — never pry a V-belt over a pulley sheave with a hard tool, as this can damage the belt cords. After installation, verify proper tension per the equipment manufacturer's specification and confirm the belt tracks centered in the sheave groove before restoring power.\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 V-Belt\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutside Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 49 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInternal Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 48.30 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBelt Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3L490\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: High Traction Rubber\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.15 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: 20042718\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"CONTINENTAL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51560718369074,"sku":"20042718","price":24.45,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/485392305233762270002d8acf67c70f.jpg?v=1786456120","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/continental-contitech-20042718-3l-v-belt-49-in","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
