The Optibelt DS8M 960 is a double-sided timing belt from the STD series, with a 960 mm length. When a drive runs two belts or a belt that drives from both faces, matching the existing belt correctly keeps the replacement straightforward. We carry this belt and quote it by part number.
Start by reading the marking on the back of the belt you are replacing. The part number and length identify the belt, so compare them with the Optibelt DS8M 960 before ordering. Confirm the belt is double-sided and that the length matches the 960 mm on the old belt.
A double-sided timing belt is used where both faces of the belt engage pulleys. Check the drive for worn pulleys, misalignment or damaged teeth that may have caused the original belt to fail. If the drive uses more than one belt, replace them as a set so the load stays even.
Send the part number, the length and a photo of the marking to our team by WhatsApp or email. We reply promptly and can help confirm this belt or suggest an equivalent.
