The Gates SPB 1720 is a narrow wedge V-belt in the Delta Narrow series. It has an SPB profile, a 1720 mm length, a 16.3 mm top width, a 13 mm height, and a 40 degree angle. To match it to the belt being replaced, read the marking on the back of the old belt and compare profile, length, width, height, and angle.

Start by confirming the profile and length. This belt is an SPB profile and measures 1720 mm. Its top width is 16.3 mm, its height is 13 mm, and its included angle is 40 degrees. If the old belt is worn or the marking is unreadable, measure the outside length and the top width, then compare those values to the data above.

A narrow wedge V-belt like this one sits deeper in the pulley groove than a classic V-belt. That means the profile and the angle have to match the sheave, not just the length. When you request a quote, send the part number SPB 1720 and, if you have them, the old belt's marking and a photo of the drive. We carry the Gates SPB 1720 and can help confirm it is the right belt or suggest an equivalent.

For drives that run more than one belt, replace the full set at the same time. Belt tension and pulley alignment should be checked as part of the same job. If the old belt failed early, inspect the sheaves for wear before installing the replacement.
