Detailed Description

Continental 17671 is an Automotive V-Belt designed for accessory drive systems where accurate dimensions and stable performance matter. The EPDM-based construction helps the belt withstand elevated engine-bay temperatures and wear, while high-strength fiber reinforcement supports dimensional stability. That combination helps maintain consistent belt tracking and reduces stretch during service.
