This Optibelt Alpha Power belt is a timing belt in profile T10 with a 1610 mm length and a 10 mm pitch. It is the kind of synchronous belt used where a drive has to hold a fixed relationship between shaft positions rather than simply transmit torque. If you are replacing a worn belt on a timed drive, this page gives you the figures to check against your own application.

Timing belts in this profile class turn up on industrial drives where indexing, positioning or synchronization matters: cam and auxiliary drives on machinery, pump and compressor drives, conveyors, and similar equipment built around a toothed pulley. The teeth engage the pulley grooves to keep the drive positive, so the belt does not rely on friction the way a V-belt does.

To confirm fit, work from the belt itself. Read the marking on the back of the old belt and compare the profile and length against the T10 profile and 1610 mm length given here. Check the pulley grooves are clean and undamaged, that the flanges are not worn, and that tension is set to the drive maker's specification. A belt that has run loose or misaligned will show edge wear or tooth damage, which usually points to a drive problem rather than the belt alone.
