8DPK DOUBLE-SIDED MULTI-V BELTS

Eight-Rib Belts for Double-Sided Automotive Drives

SUMATE supplies 8DPK double-sided automotive multi-V belts for accessory drives that use grooved pulleys on both sides of the belt. This page brings together eight-rib DPK and PKK identification references; the complete belt marking and drive specification determine the size required.

Trade buyers can use the reference tables below to prepare a size-by-size enquiry. Include the original belt marking, vehicle and engine details, and the quantity for each model so we can check the specification and quote the order.

8DPK Belt Reference Codes

The following designations are listed in automotive belt reference catalogues. The length-code column reproduces the numeric part of each designation. It is not an independent measurement of effective length or outside circumference, and it must not be used as a manufacturing tolerance.

Published 8DPK designations and their length codes
Reference designation Length code (mm)
8DPK1355 1355
8DPK1827 1827
8DPK1833 1833

Ordering by reference: Retain the full prefix, length number and any suffix. Keep 8DPK1827 and 8DPK1833 as separate references. A matching rib count or a nearby length number does not establish interchangeability.

Eight-Rib PKK Markings and Effective Lengths

Some catalogues identify double-sided multi-V belts using PKK markings. The table below retains those original designations and their published effective lengths. The references may overlap with the DPK list above; the two tables are not a count of different interchangeable products.

Published eight-rib PKK references — effective length, not outside circumference
Reference marking Effective length (in) Approx. effective length (mm)
8PKK1327 52.24 1327
8PKK1355 53.35 1355
8PKK1415 55.71 1415
8PKK1438 56.61 1438
8PKK1448 57.01 1448
8PKK1827 71.93 1827
8PKK3188 125.51 3188
8PKK3563 140.27 3563

Measurement basis: Millimetre values are converted from the published effective lengths in inches and rounded to the nearest millimetre. Keep the original marking when requesting a quote. These reference values are not SUMATE production tolerances or stock records.

Other sizes are available to order. The references shown here do not limit our production range. Send the complete marking, required dimensions or OE reference and the quantity for each model. We will confirm the specification and order details in the quotation.

Match the Belt to the Drive

A double-sided belt is used where the pulley arrangement requires ribbed contact on both belt faces. A single-sided 8PK belt is not a substitute merely because its rib count and length are similar.

Check the rib configuration on both sides, overall width, length basis and the original belt reference. Vehicle make alone is not enough to establish fitment.

What to Include in Your Enquiry

  • Complete belt marking and any suffix
  • OE or other part reference, if available
  • Vehicle model, year and engine code
  • Quantity required for each exact size
  • Destination country and packaging requirements

If the marking is unreadable, send clear photos of both ribbed faces and any available dimensions.

Trade Orders, Samples and Packaging

In-stock belts have no minimum order quantity. Non-stock belts have a minimum order quantity of 15 pieces per exact belt model. In-stock orders generally dispatch within 3–4 days; non-stock orders generally require at least 7 days. Actual dispatch timing depends on the specification, availability and total order quantity and is confirmed with our sales team.

OEM orders and custom packaging are available. Include your marking, artwork and packaging requirements with the enquiry. Samples are normally charged; free samples may be offered to selected qualified business customers after review. Sample shipping costs are paid by the customer.

Belt Warranty

Individual belts carry a warranty of 1 year or 60,000 km, whichever comes first. A confirmed product quality issue qualifies for a free replacement.

Register within 30 days of receipt at our warranty registration website. For registered products, coverage starts from the recorded installation date; otherwise, it starts from the date of receipt. The warranty period is not a belt replacement interval.
