Belts with Quiet Channel Technology™
Tech tip: Because belts and tensioners have similar OE design life targets,
it is often best practice to replace the tensioner when replacing a worn
or broken belt. Doing both together will extend accessory drive life and
decrease overall labor costs.

Functional part number gives you the belt size:
1st digit represents a K-section Poly-V® belt
2nd & 3rd digits give the number of ribs
4th, 5th & 6th digits indicate the length in inches
7th digit is tenths of an inch
The part number 4060922, then, would be a K-section Poly-V,®
six ribs wide with a length of 92 2/10 inches.
Elite® Poly-V® belts take performance to the next level with Quiet Channel
Technology,™ making the belt run quieter and last longer. The combination
of a unique staggered “Helicog” proile with advanced EPDM rubber compounds
virtually eliminates the chirps, squeaks and squeals typically associated with pulley misalignment. Advancements
in design and materials give you the highest performance, low maintenance and proven results – with
no exceptions.
Exceptional belt life
The polyester tension member is specially treated to reduce elongation and
is very compatible in the drives with automatic tensioners used today. The
same advanced technology that makes these belts run so quietly also
increases flexibility, abrasion and heat resistance. That means you – and
your customers – get a longer lasting, maintenance-free belt drive.
Poly-V® Tensioner Kit
Elite® Poly-V® Tensioner Kits give you the ease and convenience of
having all the right parts in one place, right when you need them.
Kits include the belt plus Accu-Drive® accessory drive components,
as well as the automatic tensioner and idler pulley where applicable.
All parts meet or exceed OE recommendations and are guaranteed
or OE fit, form and function on import and domestic vehicles.
The Poly-V® is a serpentine belt made speciically for automotive drives. Its V-groove design matches the V-groove pulley
used by manufacturers and the SAE industry standard. What makes the Poly-V® diferent is its continuous engagement of
belt and pulley, allowing greater horsepower capacity per inch of width.
