Bando 800-8M-20 Timing Belt 8M 100 Teeth 0.787 in

Product Description

The BANDO 800-8M-20 is an 8M-section synchronous timing belt designed for precision power transmission in mechanical drive systems. Constructed from neoprene with a fiberglass tension cord, this belt delivers reliable torque transfer and dimensional stability across a wide temperature range. It features a curvilinear tooth profile, 100 teeth, and a pitch length of 800 mm. At 0.787 inches wide and 0.236 inches in height, the 800-8M-20 fits standard 8M-pitch pulleys and is installed by millwrights, HVAC technicians, and industrial maintenance professionals in both OEM and aftermarket applications.

This belt suits light-to-medium duty synchronous drive applications including HVAC equipment, conveyor systems, printing machinery, and general industrial power transmission. The 8M curvilinear tooth profile is common in applications requiring accurate indexing or consistent speed ratios. With an outside length of 31.50 inches and a 100-tooth count, it is sized for mid-range drive center distances. It is suitable for both indoor and climate-controlled environments given its rated temperature range of -22 degrees F to 194 degrees F.

Key Features

• 8M curvilinear tooth profile for accurate synchronous power transmission
• Neoprene construction with fiberglass cord for flexibility and tensile strength
• 100 teeth with 800 mm pitch length for consistent indexing accuracy
• Operating range: -22 degrees F to 194 degrees F
• Classic cogged style suitable for standard 8M-pitch pulley systems
• 0.787 inch belt width fits standard 20 mm wide pulley grooves

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement for synchronous drive systems using 8M-section timing belt pulleys with a 20 mm belt width and 800 mm pitch length.

Installation Notes

Timing belt replacement should be performed by a qualified technician with the drive system fully de-energized and locked out per OSHA lockout/tagout procedures. Proper belt tension is critical — consult the equipment manufacturer's service manual for the correct deflection or tension specification before finalizing installation. Do not force the belt over pulley flanges; always relieve center distance to allow belt seating. Inspect pulleys for wear, debris, and alignment before installing a replacement belt.
