dizzy belt i.d. help

[j_rockhe]

We have a belt that i can not i.d. it is a brown/orangeish color looks like the old nitrile pattern but it is so old that the pattern in the belt is hard to distinguish.It was on a distributor that we got and I haven't had one problem in 4yrs with that belt.I would love to know who made it or if it is still made ,but then again it works great so they probably don't. lol

You know what I want 33 more of these as I have 3 that are MORE than 15 years old! They grab the pins like glue and track straight too.I have replaced what seems like a entire UPS truck of other kinds,mostly white nitriles but these 3 just keep on rolling! The company that sold these probably went out of business from not being able to sell anymore

The old orange belts were a Quality belt they discontinued - they were soft and grabby

Quality huh.....wonder why they would discontinue a great belt like that?I'm running some splawn grey grippers....so far so good.

Me thinks for the reason keeth pointed out, make a belt that lasts forever, you kinda run out of people who need to buy it.....

I tried the grey grippers from Splawn and got 6 months out of them before they became slick as goose crap but we are a high lineage center. I now use their black poly-v and you cant beat the price.

Well if quality needs some extra cash one day they can bring em back because i know me along with alot of other guys would be in line for them! Best belt ive ever delt with hands down.

i dont think quality makes any amf parts any more ... they were bought by brunswick... i use to like their combo motors.. the dark blue leeson or quality brands

[keeth]

Too bad that there are no more backend westies left!

[j_rockhe]

Got 2 them....1 quality...1leeson both ive never had the first thing go wrong. Along with our nationals....great motors

[gaddy1021]

i think i found someone who makes or sells that orange rough top belt.... A1 bowling... www.bowlingbelts.com they sent me a catalog a while back with it in there..... it doesnt apper to be on there website but if u click on the picture of the skiver tool it shows the belt and in their catalog it has a part number and a price

Never had a problem with my trusty poly-v's from AMF. You can clean those bad boys & the pins won't even slip if the belt is wet!

The orange belts i have here (big shout out to seanm) we have had them since May last year and as yet have not cleaned them once, they still look as good as the day they went in, (slightly darker) but they are still SUPER grippy as all hell despite never being cleaned. Also figured that slashed an hour a night off the guys work load to do other things. We went from around 25 PPU's a week with the old belts to about 4-5, I also use a belt riser on them to get that grip a tad earlier...
