The Optibelt B 55 is a classical V-belt in the Red Power series. To match it to the belt being replaced, confirm the profile and length on the old belt. This page lists the exact dimensions so you can verify before ordering.
The B 55 has a B profile, a 1473 mm length, a 17 mm top width, an 11 mm height, and a 40° angle. When checking a replacement, read the marking on the back of the old belt. If it shows B 55, this belt matches those dimensions. If the marking is worn, measure the top width and the outside length to confirm the profile and length.
The same size is also listed under Stark B 55. If your drive uses multiple belts, inspect all belts in the set. Replace them as a set when any belt shows wear. This keeps the drive running evenly and avoids mismatched belts on the same pulleys.

Frequently asked questions
- How do I confirm this is the right belt for my drive?
- Check the marking on the old belt. It should show B 55. You can also measure the top width and outside length and compare them to the 17 mm top width and 1473 mm length listed here.
- What should I send to request a quote?
- Send the part number B 55 and the brand Optibelt. If you are replacing a belt with a different marking, include the profile, length, and a photo of the old belt so we can help confirm the match.
- Can I replace just one belt in a multi-belt drive?
- For drives that use more than one belt, it is common practice to replace the full set at the same time. This helps maintain even tension and wear across all belts on the drive.
