This Optibelt Alpha Flex timing belt, part number 55 / 14M 4606 AFX, is a synchronous belt with an HTD 14M profile, a 4606 mm length and a 14 mm pitch. It is used in industrial drives where timing and synchronization are critical, such as those found in packaging, printing, and other process machinery. To confirm fit, check that your drive uses an HTD 14M pulley and that the required belt length matches 4606 mm.
When selecting a replacement, the profile and length are the primary matching criteria. The HTD 14M profile refers to the tooth shape and pitch, while the 4606 mm length is the datum length. Compare these values with the marking on your existing belt or with the drive specifications. If the old belt is worn or illegible, measure the pulley groove profile and the center distance to verify the required length.
The Optibelt Alpha Flex construction is suited to drives that require consistent tooth engagement and resistance to flex fatigue. Because timing belts often operate in sets or on multi-pulley drives, inspect all belts and pulleys for wear, proper tension, and alignment. Replacing a single belt on a worn drive may lead to premature failure, so evaluate the entire system before installation.

Frequently asked questions
- How do I confirm that the 55 / 14M 4606 AFX is the correct belt for my drive?
- Check the marking on your existing belt for the profile and length. The replacement must have an HTD 14M profile and a 4606 mm length. If the marking is not readable, measure the pulley pitch and the belt length, or send us the drive details and we can help confirm.
- What should I include when requesting a quote for this belt?
- Send the part number 55 / 14M 4606 AFX, the quantity you need, and any details about the drive or application. If you are unsure about the part number, include photos of the old belt and the pulley teeth, and we can assist with identification.
- Can I replace just one belt on a multi-belt drive?
- On drives that use multiple belts, it is good practice to replace all belts at the same time to maintain even tension and load sharing. Inspect the pulleys for wear and ensure correct alignment and tension during installation.
