The Optibelt C 188 is a classical V-belt with a C profile and a length of 4877 mm. When you are replacing a belt on an existing drive, the most reliable approach is to match the belt you are removing rather than relying on a catalog guess.
Start by reading the marking on the back of the old belt. Look for the profile letter and the length number, then confirm the physical dimensions: this belt has a top width of 22 mm, a height of 14 mm and a 40-degree angle. If the old marking is worn or missing, measure the outside length and compare it to the 4877 mm figure.
The same size is also listed under Mitsuboshi C 188 and Gates C 188, so you can cross-check what is already on the drive against those brands. If the belt has been running in a set, replace all belts in the set at the same time so the load stays evenly divided.
For a quote, send the part number C 188, the brand Optibelt and the quantity you need. If you are unsure whether this is the correct belt, include a photo of the old belt marking and the drive sheave dimensions.
