When the marking on the back of a timing belt is worn, the part number is often the only reliable way to identify it. This page covers the Optibelt 1800 8M from the Omega High Power series, a timing belt with an HTD 8M profile, an 1800 mm length and an 8 mm pitch. We carry this belt and quote it by part number.

The 1800 8M marking tells you the profile and the length. HTD 8M is the profile, 1800 mm is the length and 8 mm is the pitch. Before ordering, read the back of the old belt and compare every character to the number on this page. If the printing has rubbed off, measure the belt and check the drive sprockets so the profile and pitch are confirmed.

The same size is also listed under Gates 1800 8M. If you are matching a belt already in service, that gives you a second reference to compare against the old marking. Send the part number, the profile, the length and the pitch from the belt you are replacing, and we will confirm the Optibelt 1800 8M or suggest an equivalent.

Timing belts are commonly replaced as part of a drive inspection. Check the sprockets for wear, confirm the belt is seated correctly and review the tension after installation. If the drive uses more than one belt, replace them as a set so the load stays even across the drive.
