The Optibelt VB S=C Plus 13 x 1143 Li is a classical V-belt with an A profile, a 13 mm top width, an 8 mm height and a 40 degree angle. This page covers what to check on the drive and sheaves before fitting this belt. Send the part number for a quote.
Before fitting a new classical V-belt, inspect the sheave grooves for wear, rust, burrs or embedded debris. Worn or damaged grooves can shorten belt life even when the replacement belt is correct. Confirm the sheave groove angle and width suit a 13 mm top width and 40 degree profile, and check that the sheaves are aligned and free of runout.
Check the drive for other causes of belt failure: seized bearings, overload, excessive tension or a worn tensioner. Correct any misalignment or damaged components before installing the belt. A belt with a 1143 mm length and 8 mm height should sit correctly in the grooves without riding on the sheave tops.
When replacing a classical V-belt on a multi-belt drive, fit a full set of belts from the same production run so they share the load evenly. Mixing new and used belts can cause the new belt to carry more than its share and fail early. Record the belt marking from the back of the old belt to confirm the profile and length.
