The Optibelt 50 / 5M 4800 AFX is an Alpha Flex timing belt with an HTD 5M profile, a 4800 mm length and a 5 mm pitch. Before you fit it, inspect the drive and the sheaves so the new belt runs on a sound system. We carry this belt and quote it by part number.

Start with the sheaves. Check the grooves for wear, corrosion, burrs or embedded debris, since any of these can damage a new timing belt. Confirm the sheaves are aligned and that the bearings turn freely. If a sheave is worn or damaged, correct it before fitting the Optibelt 50 / 5M 4800 AFX.

Next, look at the rest of the drive. Check the shafts, the tensioning arrangement and the guards, and remove any oil, coolant or dust that could affect the belt. A clean, correctly aligned drive helps the HTD 5M profile seat properly and run as intended. Once the drive is sound, fit the belt and tension it to the drive manufacturer's specification.

The Optibelt 50 / 5M 4800 AFX is an Alpha Flex timing belt with a 4800 mm length and a 5 mm pitch. If you are replacing a belt on an existing drive, read the marking on the back of the old belt and compare it with this part number. Send that part number to our team by WhatsApp or email and we will confirm the right belt or suggest an equivalent.
