This is a Gates BB 83 double-V (hexagonal) belt from the Hi-Power Dubl-V series, with a BB profile and a length of 2185 mm. Double-V belts are used on drives that need power transmitted from both sides of the belt, such as certain reversing or multi-pulley industrial drives. Confirm fit by matching the profile and length to your existing belt.
To confirm the right belt, check the marking on the back of the old belt. It should show the profile and the part number, and the length should match 2185 mm. The same size is also listed under Stark BB 83, so you can compare that reference if it appears on your current belt.
Inspect the drive before ordering: look for worn sheaves, misalignment, and proper tension. On double-V drives, both sides of the belt contact the pulleys, so replacing a single belt in a worn set can lead to uneven load and early failure. Ordering by the part number and length helps avoid mismatches.
