Hi Guys - don't feel guilty about ordering these - my supply chain is good so I can easily get more made!!!! Best wishes, Charlie

I am delighted to inform everyone that I now have a supply of drive Belts of 17mm internal diameter, approx 53mm length, and 0.8 x 0.8 square cross section. They seem to be of a very good quality, and are available from my usual shop on ebay, or direct if you wish by replying to this post. If the administers are so minded now you know who I am, I have a link to the ebay ad but haven't posted that until you tell me I can (or otherwise!!!) The price is a little more than my normal range as they have been produced to order and so are all brand new stock, but I can let them out at just £1.65 each plus postage (£0.85 UK or £1.70 worldwide) Regards to everyone Charlie

Will do Kevin. I anticipate 2 weeks before they arrive

I have just received confirmation that these belts can be made, so I have put an order in for 50 of them (17mm x 0.8 square cross section). These will probably be delivered within the next 14 days as we use FedEx who offer an exceptional service. As soon as I have worked out the final cost with shipping and Customs I will get these listed on my usual eBay site, but I will also let everyone on here know that they are available Best wishes everyone Charlie

I have sent in the request and I will post the response as soon as I get it. He gives me a great service and I have just received a large box of turntable and cassette deck flat belts which I am slowly working through (!!!) and I am sure he will offer something that will be acceptable As it has gone mid-night there I hope I will hear from him tomorrow!!!

Do you mean 17mm diameter, or 17mm internal diameter!!!???

Hi 0.8mm doesn't seem to be made anymore - I sometimes get quantities of Walkman type belts but the quality is usually very varied, and the smallest sizes seem to be approx 25mm diameter. These are still manufactured by my usual supplier so I will send him an enquiry and report back his response. With the time difference and their seemingly continuous holidays (in China!) it might be Monday before I have his response. He has recently made me a brand new supply of 14mm belts which are of lovely quality, so it may be that he can make a special run of these.............I will report back... Regards! Charlie

Hi All, I have supplied belts for several years now, and have been asked for this size frequently. It is now almost impossible to get.....so I have got 100 of these made and will have them available by about 20th November......they are more expensive than my usual stock as the production cost is a one-off, but can supply them at £2.45 each plus postage. The belt is good quality, measures 14mm external diameter, is 1.2mm x 1.2mm square cross-section, and has a 43mm circumference If you are interested then please let me know by message so your details are keptb private. All the very best - enjoy lockdown if you are suffering it as we are here in the UK!!!! Charlie

Hi Stephen and to everyone else I in no way wish to promote what I have - just to answer the many members who have asked me about the internal or external diameter measurements and what else i have available That was the only reason for my post I wish you all well, and if I have caused offence then i will withdraw my posts immediately

Hi I have been selling the 17mm belt to many of the members of these forums, and thank you for the many comments and positive feedback. Following some recent enquiries I have now added a number of additional sizes with more accurate information. These are a good quality belt with a 1.2mm square cross section (approx) and are available as follows.... 17mm diameter (external measurement); 53mm length (approx) 20mm diameter; 63mm length 25mm diameter; 78mm length 28mm diameter; 88 mm length 30mm diameter; 94mm length 34mm diameter; 107mm length The ebay ad for these Item ID: 193731685801 I do not unfortunately have details of which belt is required for each model, but many of you on this forum already have this info!!! Hope that this is use to you Charlie Linx Audio (admin note: Charlie has now posted his own thread in the Classified section, you can read it here )
