Continental 17661 Accessory Drive Belt
Continental Automotive V-Belt 17661 is built for accessory drive applications that demand stable tension, quiet operation, and consistent grip. With a 0.53-inch top width and 66.10-inch length, it is a direct-fit option for select Jeep, Ford, Mercury, and Pontiac applications that use a V-belt accessory drive layout.
The Continental Automotive V-Belt line focuses on dependable belt performance for engine-driven accessories. This belt uses EPDM compounds for heat and abrasion resistance, along with fiber reinforcement to help control stretch over time. The result is a belt engineered for steady power transfer in air conditioning, power steering, and air pump applications.
