The Optibelt BB 73 is a double-V (hexagonal) belt in the DK series, with a BB profile. This belt is used where both sides of the belt contact the sheaves, so the condition of the drive and the sheaves matters before you fit a replacement.
Before fitting the Optibelt BB 73, inspect the sheaves for wear, grooves, or damage that can shorten belt life. Check alignment and make sure the sheave grooves match the BB profile. A quick inspection at this stage helps the new belt run correctly from the start.
If you are matching an existing belt, the marking on the back of the old belt gives you the profile and the part number. This belt is identified as BB 73. The same size is also listed under Mitsuboshi BB 73 and Gates BB 73, which can help when you are comparing what is on the drive.
For a quote, send the part number BB 73 and the quantity you need. If you are unsure about the profile or the length, include a photo of the belt marking and the sheave details. The team can confirm the right belt or suggest an equivalent.
