Flat drive belts

[Gragson]

Anyone know a source of woven type flat belts like this in this size?

Tried one of these Megadyne branded, slips a bit, and deformed a bit due slight misalignment of front and rear pulley which I have shimmed out now.
The old woven one is a lot more forgiving on alignment and does not slip so would prefer to get that type as a spare.

Cheers

Leather or Balata belt are the terms to search for.

Balata Looks like I have found a source based on that word on a stationary engine parts site! Bloody good price too - Cheers Matt

Was it AC belting?, I've had good service from them.

No it was these guys https://www.stationaryengineparts.com/1-Wide-3ply-4.5mm-Thick-Balata-Flat-Belting.html
I'm guessing you must have heard of them.

But I think I will be giving AC a call having had a look there now

SEP are a good "one stop shop" for stationary engine stuff, but if you do a bit of research, the same or better quality products can be found elsewhere for a better price

Can't recall the name of the guy I spoke to at AC belting, but he knows his stuff, just tell him what you want it for, length etc. and he will guide you to the right product.
