Continental ContiTech 20169551 4050390 Poly-V Belt/Serpentine Belt, Rubber, 39.75'' Long, 5 Ribs

The belt is static conductive, making it appropriate in the presence of explosive gases, liquids, powders, and other substances where the possibility of static sparks must be kept to a minimum. The Poly-V belt is built with Vytacord tension members, a synthetic reinforcement that increases overall tensile strength and lends dimensional stability so that drive performance is more consistent and predictable over the life of the belt. The Poly-V belt is suitable for small sheave, compact designs requiring limited vibration. Its weight makes it suitable for high-speed drives with short center distances. It uses smaller pulleys than other V-belts and can handle speed ratios of 40:1. It resists settling the grooves of the sheave, which maintains consistent speed ratios and uniform output speed. The belt fully engages with the sheave grooves, equalizing belt stresses, which in turn minimizes belt stretch, leading to longer product life. It allows smaller sheaves to be used, reducing weight and increasing drive efficiency. The belt is backed in oil-and abrasion-resistant fabric, providing longitudinal flexibility and lateral strength to the joined belt.
