Available in a wide variety of sizes
Continental ContiTech Torque Team® Laminated V-belts are
available in the 5VL belt cross section and in most standard
lengths. The 5VL laminated V-belt is interchangeable with all
standard 5V and 5VX V-belts currently found on these drives.
They can also be cut to a variety of rib widths, depending on
your drive requirements. This ensures a perfectly-matched set
of V-belts that can further enhance drive performance.

Key features & benefits
Narrow profile ribs provide savings through efficiency.
Joined construction for problem drives.
High horsepower capacity.
High-strength Vytacord® tensile members.
Laminated construction engineered to slip.
Tough fabric backing.
Oil, heat, ozone and abrasion resistant.
Static conductive.*
*
Drive conditions and service variables in combination with time in
operation can result in a loss of static conductivity. It is recommended
that a conductivity check be added to drive preventive maintenance
programs where belt static conductivity is a requirement.
Reduce downtime and maintenance
Continental ContiTech Torque Team® Laminated V-belts can
withstand the punishment that results from jams in log and
lumber processing applications.
Standard V-belts resist slipping when a jam occurs, causing
excessive heat buildup that can lead to belt failure and costly
downtime. But that won’t happen with Torque Team®
Laminated V-belts on the job.
The special sidewall of Torque Team® Laminated V-belts acts
as a control switch, allowing the belts to slip as needed until the
obstruction is cleared. As a result, the superior wear-resistant
capabilities of Torque Team® Laminated V-belts are maintained,
increasing belt life up to four times longer than standard V-belts.
High strength for long life
Continental ContiTech Torque Team® Laminated V-belts feature
our powerful Vytacord® tensile members. Vytacord® provides
high strength and horsepower ratings, yet serves as a more
forgiving reinforcement that will give under excessive tension
instead of snapping. That means increased belt life.
