Continental Contitech 20042764 Cogged V-belt 4L 36 in

Product Description

The CONTINENTAL CONTITECH 20042764 is a fractional horsepower cogged V-belt designed for light-duty power transmission applications across HVAC, refrigeration, and general mechanical equipment. Manufactured from high traction rubber, this belt runs in the 4L cross-section and carries an outside length of 36 inches with an internal length of 35 inches. The cogged design reduces bending resistance, which improves efficiency on smaller sheave diameters and helps lower operating temperatures over standard wrapped belts. The abrasion-resistant and ozone-resistant compound extends service life in both indoor and outdoor mechanical environments. Licensed HVAC technicians, refrigeration mechanics, and equipment service professionals are the typical installers.

This belt is suited for residential and light commercial HVAC units, evaporative coolers, fans, blowers, and fractional horsepower motor-driven equipment that accept a 4L-section belt. The 4L360 designation is the industry-standard cross-reference number and can be used to confirm fit against OEM belt callouts on equipment nameplates or service manuals. It is appropriate for applications requiring operation across a wide temperature range, from -40 degrees C up to 140 degrees C, making it viable in unconditioned mechanical rooms and rooftop installations.

Key Features

• Cogged construction reduces flex resistance and improves grip on small-diameter sheaves
• High traction rubber compound provides reliable power transfer in variable-load applications
• Abrasion resistant and ozone resistant for extended outdoor and mechanical room service life
• Wide operating temperature range: -40 degrees C minimum to 140 degrees C maximum
• 4L360 belt number allows direct cross-reference against OEM and aftermarket callouts
• Fractional horsepower profile fits standard 4L-section sheaves used on HVAC and fan equipment

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement for equipment requiring a 4L-section fractional horsepower V-belt with a 36-inch outside length. Cross-references to belt number 4L360.

Installation Notes

Belt replacement is typically performed by a licensed HVAC technician or refrigeration mechanic. Always disconnect and lock out power to the unit before removing guards or handling drive components. Adjust sheave center distance to allow belt seating without forcing, then tension according to the equipment manufacturer's deflection specification found on the unit nameplate or service documentation. Never use a pry bar to force a belt over sheave flanges, as this can damage the belt cord and reduce service life.
