The Optibelt 1280 8M is an Omega High Power timing belt with an HTD 8M profile. It measures 1280 mm in length with an 8 mm pitch. Use this page to match it to the belt you are replacing.
Start by reading the marking on the back of the old belt. You are looking for the profile and the length: HTD 8M and 1280 mm. If the belt is worn or the print is gone, measure the pitch and the length instead. A belt that matches on both points is the correct starting point.
The 1280 8M is a synchronous belt, so it drives by tooth engagement rather than friction. Check the pulleys for worn teeth, the flanges for damage, and the tensioner for free movement before you fit the new belt. A drive that is out of alignment or has a failed tensioner will shorten the life of any belt.
When you request a quote, send the part number 1280 8M and, if you have it, a photo of the old belt's back marking. If you are unsure between this belt and another, send the profile and length you measured and the team will confirm the right belt or suggest an equivalent.
