Belts for most turntables

We stock flat belts for most turntables as listed below. If your deck is not listed you can work out the length you need using 2 methods. Belt sizes are specified using the circumference which is the TOTAL length of the belt.

a) To measure the circumference you can take your existing belt and lay it flat against a ruler - measure the length and then double the measured figure - this will give you the circumference (i.e Total length).

b) Alternatively you can loop a length of thread or string round the sub-platter (or platter if belt runs on this) and pulley. This mimics the belt path - Measure the thread length and then subtract about 5mm to allow for belt stretch. This is the circumference you need.

We offer 2 grades of flat belt - Standard neoprene belts at £12.80 each

"High performance flat belt" at £29. The high performance belts are made from a unique belt material and are hand made by origin Live. We can offer these at any length you specify.

NOTE:- The high performance belt length we supply will always be significantly shorter than you specify, as the material is very elastic (much more so than neoprene) so we compensate for you accordingly. The lenght you give us should be for the belt path in an UNSTRATCHED condition.

Origin Live FLAT "upgrade" belts for curved pulley - very high performance
}

These belts contain a very special elastic not found in normal belts. The performance increase over all conventional flat belts is dramatic due to increased grip and reduced transmission of motor vibration. Money back gaurantee.
