This Optibelt Alpha Flex timing belt is identified by the code 30 / 8M 8600 AFX. It uses the HTD 8M profile with an 8 mm pitch and an 8600 mm length. It is a synchronous belt for drives where the belt teeth mesh with matching pulleys to keep the driven components in step.
Timing belts of this type are common on industrial drives that need synchronized motion rather than friction grip. Typical uses include power transmission on processing equipment, conveyors and other machinery where the pulley grooves match the HTD 8M profile. The 8600 mm length suits long-center drives, and the 8 mm pitch defines the tooth spacing that must match the pulleys.
To confirm fit, read the marking on the back of the old belt and compare it with the code 30 / 8M 8600 AFX. Check that the pulley profile is HTD 8M and that the belt length matches the drive layout. If the marking is worn or unreadable, measure the old belt and note the profile and length, then send those details along with the part number when you request a quote.

Frequently asked questions
- How do I confirm this belt fits my drive?
- Compare the code on the back of your existing belt with 30 / 8M 8600 AFX. Confirm the pulleys are HTD 8M profile and that the required belt length is 8600 mm. If the old marking is not readable, send the profile and length you measure so we can help confirm the right belt.
- What does the 8 mm pitch mean for matching pulleys?
- The 8 mm pitch is the distance between belt teeth. The pulley grooves must be made for the same HTD 8M pitch so the teeth seat correctly. A belt with a different pitch will not mesh properly with the pulleys.
- What information should I send with my quote request?
- Send the part number 30 / 8M 8600 AFX, the belt type, profile and length from the old belt marking, and the quantity you need. If you have a photo of the marking or the drive, include it so we can help confirm the correct belt or suggest an equivalent.
