Description
OPTIBELT 85 / 14M 8596 AFX belongs to timing belt, part of our Power transmission range. Tell us how many you need by WhatsApp or email and we'll get back to you promptly with a quote for 85 / 14M 8596 AFX and any equivalents.
This Optibelt Alpha Flex timing belt is identified by its HTD 14M profile and 8596 mm length. The 14 mm pitch defines the tooth spacing along the belt. Use these two values to confirm the belt matches your drive before requesting a quote.
The marking 85 / 14M 8596 AFX combines the profile and length you need to match. HTD 14M is a high-torque drive profile with a 14 mm pitch. The 8596 mm length is the datum length for this belt. If your current belt shows the same profile and length, this Optibelt belt is the correct size.
When reading a timing belt, the profile and length are the primary selection criteria. The 14M profile and 8596 mm length must match the pulleys and the required center distance. A belt with a different profile will not seat correctly in the pulley grooves, and a different length will not tension properly.
To request a quote, send the part number 85 / 14M 8596 AFX, the profile HTD 14M, and the length 8596 mm. If you are replacing a belt on a drive, include the belt marking and any drive details you have. We carry Optibelt belts and can confirm the right belt or suggest an equivalent.
