2" x 42" belt question

blgoode · Apr 13, 2004

I have a 2 x 42 grinder and I am needing some belts. I have read that 3m belts and ceramic belts are the way to go.

Pops supply only has 2" x 72"

Where can I get these type of belts to fit my 2 x 42?

Tru-Grit probably has them. www.trugrit.com/

well, Truegrit.com isn't working?? I'll try to keep looking.......

well...I just went with Supergrit. I dont like the AO belts but they seem to have a better grit selection. I wish I could find the 3M type to fit a 2 x 42 grinder. Oh well.....

Supergrit sales 3m and norton in ceramic. Less then
$4.oo each up to 220 grit I think

just stretch your grinder 72-42=30. That's it! Just add 30 inches of grinder to your machine.

hey....don't laugh. I had for a moment thought about adding arms with rollers and trying that but then I thought....That is gonna' be a mess!

Roller skate wheels make dood idlers. easy enough to add. I bought mine at goodwill. Look for wheels with no "slop" in em.
