OPTIBELT DELTA CHAIN CARBON 8mm GT2 BELT

The Optibelt Delta Chain Carbon (DCC) Supercharger Belt is the latest development out of Optibelt. Suitable for all out supercharged engines
with PSI Screw Blowers or Standard or Hi-Helix 14-71's and up. The DCC belt is manufactured utilising polyurethane with carbon fibre cord and finished with a durable red fabric/polyurethane contact surface at the belt/pulley interface. The back surface is smooth for noise reduction when
a back idler is used.

TENSION CORD
In contrast to rubber and kevlar timing belts a tension cord made of carbon fibres is used. This stands out particularly with its ability to transmit extremely high forces. Carbon cord achieves unmatched
length stability and outstanding breakage resistance in comparison to all other tension cords such as those made of glass, steel or aramid (Kevlar).

TEETH
The teeth and also the top layer are made of high-strength cast polyamide or thermoset and are an extremely wear-resistant
fabric. Both features give the teeth outstanding shear strength.

RESISTANCE TO CHEMICALS
Due to the materials used, especially the elastomer polyurethane used in this case, the optibelt DELTA CHAIN carbon exhibits good to very good resistance to oils, greases and a large number of aggressive chemicals when compared to rubber. Verification of the selected drive in tests is generally recommended. Simple swelling tests should be performed in advance.

Optibelt DELTA CHAIN CARBON timing belts must not be bent otherwise the carbon tension cord will be damaged.

A 14mm Delta Carbon Chain Belt will be available next year.

(Kevlar) Supercharger Drive Belts

OPTIBELT OMEGA HP (KEVLAR) 8mm BLOWER BELT

The Omega HP HTD 8mm Supercharger Belt is the Optibelt version of the kevlar supercharger belt. With twice the load capacity as a standard 8mm
HTD blower belt this belt is constructed with Hi-Modulus cord and with Arimid (Kevlar) fibers to meet the demand where serious boost/load
conditions are the norm.

 
OPTIBELT OMEGA HP (KEVLAR) 14mm BLOWER BELT

The Omega HP HTD 14mm Supercharger Belt is the Optibelt version of
the kevlar supercharger belt. With twice the load capacity as a standard 8mm HTD blower belt this belt is constructed with Hi-Modulus cord and
with Arimid (Kevlar) fibers to meet the demand where serious boost/load
conditions are the norm.

OPTIBELT OMEGA 8mm BLOWER BELTS

The Omega Supercharger Belt is Optibelt's 8mm HTD Rubber belt utilising Glass fibre cord construction and has load rating of nearly twice that of
the ZR 1/2" pitch blower belt.
(Kevlar) Supercharger Drive Belts
OPTIBELT ZR 1/2" PITCH BLOWER BELTS

The popular ZR Series 1/2" Pitch Supercharger Belt is where it all began. Still plenty strong for Street and moderate competition use the optibelt ZR
is constructed of rubber utilising Glass fibre cord construction.

SUPERCHARGER BELT COMPARISON

The Omega HP HTD 8mm Supercharger Belt is the Optibelt version of
the kevlar supercharger belt. With twice the load capacity as a standard 8mm HTD blower belt this belt is constructed with Hi-Modulus cord and
with Arimid (Kevlar) fibers to meet the demand where serious boost and
load conditions are the norm. of course the Delt Chain Carbon belt is Optiblts top belt for all out racing conditions.
