Description

The Continental 6PK1640 Ribbed V-Belt is a high-quality serpentine belt designed to deliver quiet, efficient, and reliable power transmission in automotive auxiliary drive systems. Engineered by Continental CTAM, this belt meets OEM-level standards to ensure precise fitment, smooth operation, and long-term durability in everyday driving conditions.

This belt features a 6-rib PK profile with an effective length of 1640 mm. It is designed to drive essential engine accessories such as the alternator, air-conditioning compressor, and power steering pump. The flat multi-rib construction increases the contact surface with pulleys, improving grip and minimising slippage. As a result, the belt delivers stable power transfer with reduced noise and vibration.

Continental manufactures the 6PK1640 using a high-quality rubber compound reinforced with polyester tensile cords. This combination provides excellent flexibility, strength, and resistance to heat and wear. It also helps the belt maintain consistent tension and shape over extended service intervals, even under varying engine loads.

The Continental 6PK1640 is suitable for a wide range of passenger vehicles, including select models from Ford, Jaguar, BMW, Peugeot, Renault, and other European manufacturers, depending on engine configuration. It is commonly interchangeable with equivalent belts from brands such as Gates and Optibelt.
