The Optibelt Omega High Power 1696 8M is a timing belt with an HTD 8M profile, an 8 mm pitch and a 1696 mm length. We carry this belt for maintenance, engineering and purchasing teams who need to match a drive by profile and length.
The profile and length are the two figures that identify this belt. HTD 8M describes the tooth profile and the 8 mm pitch, while 1696 mm gives the length. Read the marking on the back of the old belt and compare both values before you order. If the profile and length match, the belt is the correct size for that drive position.
The same size is also listed under Gates 1696 8M, so you can use that reference when you check what is currently installed. Send the part number, the profile and the length, and our team can help confirm the right belt or suggest an equivalent.
