Continental 6PK1715 Ribbed V-Belt

Description

The Continental 6PK1715 Ribbed V-Belt is a precision-engineered serpentine belt for modern automotive auxiliary drive systems. Continental CTAM (formerly ContiTech) designs this belt to deliver reliable and efficient power transmission. As a result, it provides accurate fitment, smooth running, and long service life across many passenger vehicles.

The belt features a 6-rib PK profile and an effective length of 1715 mm. It efficiently drives key engine accessories such as the alternator, air-conditioning compressor, power steering pump, and water pump. Moreover, the flat multi-rib design improves flexibility and pulley contact. This design helps reduce slippage, vibration, and operating noise. Consequently, the engine runs quieter and more efficiently.

Continental uses advanced EPDM rubber and high-strength tensile cords in this belt. This material resists heat, oil, abrasion, and ageing. Therefore, the belt maintains stable tension and consistent performance, even in tough driving and temperature conditions. It also supports longer service intervals.

In addition, Continental offers the 6PK1715 as part of complete service solutions. These include V-ribbed Belt Sets such as 6PK1715D1, 6PK1715K1, and 6PK1715K2. Water Pump + V-ribbed Belt Kits like 6PK1715WP1 and 6PK1715WP2 are also available. As a result, the belt suits both routine replacement and full auxiliary drive maintenance.

Compatible Vehicle Applications

This belt commonly fits passenger vehicles from BMW, MINI, Ford, General Motors, Mitsubishi, Opel/Vauxhall, and Volkswagen. However, compatibility varies by engine type and accessory layout.

Note:
Always check belt length, rib count, and routing using the OE number or VIN before installation.

Overall, the Continental 6PK1715 Ribbed V-Belt delivers OEM-level quality, quiet operation, and dependable durability. It is a reliable choice for keeping engine accessory drive systems smooth and trouble-free.
