This is an Optibelt Alpha Flex timing belt, part number 55 / 14M 8050 AFX. It uses the HTD 14M profile with a 14 mm pitch and an 8050 mm length. Belts in this class are typically found on high-torque industrial drives, where the teeth carry the load rather than friction.
Confirming fit starts with the drive itself. Check that the pulleys are cut for the HTD 14M profile and that the belt path matches an 8050 mm length. On a synchronous drive the tooth profile and pitch have to match the pulleys exactly, so the HTD 14M marking on the belt and on the pulley should agree before you order.
The next step is reading the old belt. The marking on the back gives you the profile, the pitch and the length, which is what you match against this part number. If the belt has run long enough that the marking is worn away, measure the length along the belt and count the teeth, then send those numbers with your request.
For a quote, send the part number 55 / 14M 8050 AFX, or the profile, pitch and length if you are working from a measurement. Photos of the belt back and of the pulley teeth help us confirm you are looking at the right item. We carry Optibelt and can check your number against this belt.
If you are replacing more than one belt on the same drive, order them together so the set goes on as a matched group.

Frequently asked questions
- How do I confirm this belt fits my drive?
- Check the pulley profile and pitch against the belt: HTD 14M profile, 14 mm pitch. Then confirm the belt length is 8050 mm along the belt path. If the pulley grooves are cut for HTD 14M, the profile matches.
- What should I send to get a quote?
- Send the part number 55 / 14M 8050 AFX, or the profile, pitch and length from the old belt. A photo of the marking on the back of the belt is helpful if it is still readable.
- The marking on my old belt is worn off. What now?
- Measure the length along the belt and note the tooth profile and pitch from the pulleys. Send those details and we can match them to this belt or suggest the closest equivalent.
