The Gates 5M 800 Polyflex is a narrow V-belt in the Polyflex series, with an 800 mm length. It is built for compact, high-speed drives where standard V-belts are too bulky. This page covers where this type of belt is used and how to confirm it fits your drive.

Polyflex narrow V-belts are common on machine tools, office equipment, and small appliances, as well as on auxiliary drives in industrial machinery. Their narrow profile allows them to run at higher speeds and transmit power in tight spaces where a conventional V-belt would not fit. The 800 mm length makes this belt suitable for drives with short center distances.

To confirm fit, check the belt marking on the old belt. The part number 5M 800 and the Polyflex series should match. Measure the outside length or compare the old belt to the 800 mm dimension given here. If the old belt is worn or stretched, use the part number rather than the measured length. Also inspect the sheave grooves for wear and alignment, as worn sheaves can cause a new belt to fail early.

When ordering, send the complete part number, 5M 800 Polyflex, along with the quantity needed. If you are replacing multiple belts on a drive, order them as a set to ensure consistent length. Our team can help confirm the right belt or suggest an equivalent based on the information you provide.
