Synchrochain / Poly Chain Timing Belts – C8M Pitch

High-Performance Timing Belts for Demanding Applications

At BEP Ltd, we supply premium Synchrochain / Poly Chain timing belts designed for applications that require exceptionally high torque transmission at low speeds.

These C8M pitch timing belts are among the strongest toothed belts available today. Manufactured from durable polyurethane with carbon fiber tensile cords, they deliver superior strength, longevity, and performance for heavy-duty drives.

Key Features of Synchrochain / Poly Chain Belts

  • Ultra-Strong Design – Reinforced with carbon fiber tensile cords for maximum load capacity
  • Polyurethane Construction – Resistant to wear, chemicals, and oil for extended belt life
  • High Torque Transmission – Ideal for drives requiring exceptional power at low speeds
  • Low Maintenance – Designed to operate without lubrication
  • Open-Ended Options – Perfect for Omega drives using clamp plates for reciprocating motion
  • Reliable & Cost-Effective – Long service life reduces downtime and replacement costs

Applications of C8M Synchrochain Belts

Our C8M pitch Poly Chain / Synchrochain belts are widely used in:

  • Industrial Machinery – Heavy-duty power transmission in conveyors, compressors, and pumps
  • Automation Systems – High precision motion control in robotics and assembly lines
  • Agricultural Equipment – Reliable performance in tractors, harvesters, and farm machinery
  • HVAC & Fans – Smooth, vibration-free drive operation
  • Omega Drives – Open-ended belts with clamp plates for versatile linear movement
