When a drive goes down, the fastest way to identify the right replacement is to read the marking on the back of the old belt. This page covers the Optibelt 8V 1180 RP, a narrow wedge V-belt from the Red Power 3 S=C Plus series. We carry it for maintenance, engineering and purchasing teams who order by part number.
The belt is an 8V profile narrow wedge V-belt with a length of 2997 mm. On the back you will typically find the part number, the profile, the length and the series name. If the printing is worn, clean the belt with a dry cloth and check the sidewall; the profile and length are the two values you need to match. Send those details and we will confirm the belt.
The 8V profile and 2997 mm length are the key selection points. The Red Power 3 S=C Plus series is a narrow wedge construction, which is common on high-power industrial drives where space is limited. Order by the full part number, 8V 1180 RP, so the profile and length are both captured. If you are replacing a set, note the number of belts on the drive and the condition of the sheaves.
For a quote, send the part number 8V 1180 RP, the quantity, and the drive details if you have them. A photo of the marking on the old belt helps us confirm the profile and length. We reply to quote requests by WhatsApp or email.

Frequently asked questions
- How do I read the marking on an 8V 1180 RP belt?
- Look for the part number, profile and length printed on the back of the belt. For this belt, you should see 8V for the profile and 2997 mm for the length, along with the Red Power 3 S=C Plus series name. If the marking is worn, measure the top width and the outside length to confirm.
- What information do you need to quote this belt?
- Send the part number 8V 1180 RP, the quantity you need, and any drive details you have. A photo of the old belt marking is helpful. We will confirm the belt and reply by WhatsApp or email.
- Can I replace just one belt on a multi-belt drive?
- On a set of matched belts, replacing only one can leave the others at a different stage of wear. It is common practice to replace the full set so the load is shared evenly. Check the sheave grooves for wear at the same time.
