The CONTI UNIPOWER TOUGH GRIP multiple V-ribbed belt with textile surface developed by the ContiTech Power Transmission Group greatly minimizes noise buildup when accessories like the air-conditioning system, power-steering pump or generators are in operation. The belt’s special feature is that the pulley side consists of a fabric reinforcement, and is highly resistant to wear. The quiet drive belt features high wear resistance that is required for starter-generator applications. “The CONTI UNIPOWER TOUGH GRIP also solves problems in other components,” said Ralf Berger, of ContiTech’s Power Transmission Group. “This multiple V-ribbed belt shows itself to be extremely sturdy when having to operate with misaligned components in the drive system.”
