This Optibelt 1168 8M 20 HILO belt is an HTD 8M timing belt from the Omega High Load series. The 8M profile and 1168 mm length are the two dimensions that identify it on a drive. Use both when matching a replacement.
The profile is HTD 8M, so the belt has an 8 mm pitch. The length is 1168 mm. These two values, together with the 8M profile, are what you compare against the old belt or the drive documentation. A belt with the same 8M profile but a different length will not fit the same run.
The part number 1168 8M 20 HILO combines the length and profile in the marking. When you read the back of an existing belt, confirm the 1168 and the 8M before ordering. The Omega High Load series is the Optibelt line this belt belongs to.
If you are replacing a belt on a drive, check the pulleys and the belt path at the same time. A worn or misaligned pulley can damage a new belt. Send the part number 1168 8M 20 HILO and we will confirm the belt or suggest an equivalent.
