This page covers the Optibelt 40 / 14M 5698 AFX, an HTD 14M timing belt with a 5698 mm length and a 14 mm pitch. It is intended for maintenance and purchasing staff who need to confirm the belt on the machine before ordering a replacement. The most reliable way to match it is to read the marking on the old belt and compare it with the profile and length listed here.

Start with the belt currently on the drive. Note the full part number and the profile and length printed on the back. The Optibelt 40 / 14M 5698 AFX carries an HTD 14M profile, a 5698 mm length and a 14 mm pitch, so those three values are what you check against the old belt. If the marking is worn or unreadable, measure the length and confirm the tooth profile before you order.

Also inspect the pulleys and the rest of the drive while the belt is off. Check for worn teeth, damaged flanges, misalignment and correct tension. A new belt fitted to a drive with a worn pulley or a bent shaft will not run correctly or last. Correct any drive problem before installing the replacement.

When you request a quote, send the part number 40 / 14M 5698 AFX along with the profile and length from the old belt. If the marking is unclear, send a photo of the belt back and the pulley. We carry the Optibelt line and can confirm the right belt or suggest an equivalent from the details you provide.
