Continental Contitech 20043142 Timing Belt 345L 92T

Product Description

The CONTINENTAL CONTITECH 20043142 is an L-series positive-drive timing belt designed for precision power transmission in light industrial, HVAC, and mechanical drive applications. Built with a nylon tooth facing and a fiberglass tension cord, this belt delivers dimensional stability and resistance to stretch under load. It carries the belt number 345L, features 92 trapezoidal teeth, and has a pitch length of 345.00 millimeters (approximately 13.58 inches) with an internal length of 34.5 inches. Licensed trades and mechanical technicians install this belt in synchronous drive systems where exact timing between shafts is critical.

The 345L timing belt is suited for residential and light commercial equipment that relies on synchronous belt drives, including HVAC blower assemblies, fan drives, and general mechanical systems using L-series pulley configurations. The trapezoidal tooth profile meshes with standard L-pitch sprockets, making this belt a direct fit for L-series positive-drive setups. It ships as a single belt per package and is ordered in single-unit increments.

Key Features

• L-series positive-drive belt with 92 trapezoidal teeth for precise shaft synchronization
• Nylon tooth facing resists wear and maintains tooth profile over service life
• Fiberglass tension cord minimizes elongation and maintains consistent belt tension
• Belt number 345L with a pitch length of 345.00 millimeters for direct replacement sourcing
• Internal length of 34.5 inches suits standard L-series sprocket and pulley assemblies
• Single-unit packaging with no minimum order requirement beyond one belt

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement for L-series positive-drive synchronous belt applications using standard L-pitch sprockets and pulleys. Refer to the belt number 345L when cross-referencing with manufacturer sprocket and drive catalogs.

Installation Notes

Timing belt replacement is performed by qualified mechanical or HVAC technicians. Always de-energize and lock out the equipment before removing the drive guard or existing belt. Verify sprocket alignment and check for pulley wear before installing the new belt. Do not force the belt over sprocket flanges using tools, as this can damage the tension cord or tooth profile.
