The Optibelt 50 / 8M 11400 AFX is an Alpha Flex timing belt with an HTD 8M profile, an 8 mm pitch and a 11400 mm length. Before you fit it, inspect the drive and the sheaves so the new belt runs true. We carry this belt and quote by part number.
Start with the sheaves. Check the grooves for wear, scoring or embedded debris, and confirm the flanges are not bent or rubbing. A worn or damaged sheave will shorten the life of any timing belt, including this 50 / 8M 11400 AFX. Verify that the shafts and bearings turn freely and that the structure holding the sheaves is rigid.
Next, check alignment and tensioning. Misalignment between the two sheaves will pull the belt to one side and wear the edges. Confirm the tensioner moves freely and that its bearing is sound. On a belt of 11400 mm, small alignment errors add up over the long span, so take the time to check with a straight edge or laser before the belt goes on.
When you are ready to order, send the part number 50 / 8M 11400 AFX by WhatsApp or email. If you are replacing a belt that is worn or marked, send the full marking from the back of the belt and the drive details. We will confirm the belt or suggest an equivalent.
