Drive Belt for J.Sanders Pillar Drill

[John Ticehurst]

Hi

I am having trouble finding a drive belt of the correct size for my 1982 J.Sanders 5 speed pillar drill. Any advice would be appreciated.

Drive belts are made to standard profiles and lengths. If you have an old belt it should have markings to show the profile (a letter) and the length. Length can be inside or outside, measured in inches or millimetres.
Companies who sell belts generally publish guides on their websites. Quite a few eg Bearing Boys also sell bearings.

Thanks Andy - that was ideal. I have ordered one from there.
