The Optibelt PJ 1600 is a Poly-V (multi-rib) belt in the RB series, with a PJ profile and a length of 1600 mm. It is used on multi-rib drives where the belt wraps several small sheaves. Before fitting a new belt, inspect the drive and sheaves so the replacement runs true.
Check each sheave for worn grooves, nicks, rust, or built-up debris. A groove that has worn wider or deeper lets the ribs sit low and slip, which shortens belt life. Confirm the sheaves are aligned and that the ribs seat correctly in the grooves.
Look at the whole drive: pulley runout, bearing play, and any seized or tight accessory can damage a new belt quickly. Tension the belt to the drive manufacturer's specification, then recheck after the first run-in period.
The same size is also listed under Gates PJ 1600. If you are matching a belt already on the machine, read the marking on the back and send that part number with the quantity you need. We carry the Optibelt PJ 1600 RB and can help confirm it is the right belt for your drive.
