Optibelt

Founded in 1872 in Höxter, Germany, the Arntz Optibelt Group has evolved from its early roots into one of the world's leading manufacturers of high-performance drive belts. Operating as a family-owned business for over 150 years, Optibelt has built a legacy of uncompromising German engineering and precision manufacturing. Today, original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and operators across the industrial, automotive, and agricultural sectors trust Optibelt to keep their heavy-duty applications in constant motion.

Optibelt’s core focus is on maximum power transfer, longevity, and maintenance-free operation. They engineer their drive belts to withstand the harshest off-highway environments, including extreme temperature fluctuations, heavy dust, and continuous high-shock loads.

A major part of their innovation lies in advanced material science, developing specialized rubber compounds, high-tensile cords, and precisely engineered belt profiles. Products like their signature maintenance-free V-belts are specifically designed to eliminate the need for regular re-tensioning, drastically reducing machine downtime and cutting maintenance costs for operators.

Through TVH, you gain access to an extensive selection of Optibelt power transmission components tailored for demanding off-highway and industrial applications. The Optibelt product range we offer includes:

• High-performance v-belts: A comprehensive range of wrapped, raw edge, and banded V-belts designed to handle extreme loads without stretching or slipping, including innovative maintenance-free options.
