Where can I get a CORRECT timing belt? Not on ebay!
v8kid - 12/6/17 at 10:09 AM

I am so cheesed off with crappy ebay sellers selling total and utter poo.

My mower uses a double sided 225 tooth 8mm pitch 25 mm wide HTD belt. Searching on the application and part no gives a match and what happens - TWICE!!

Yup, from different sellers, they send a trapezoidal section cos its cheap.

Now these "retailers" claim to be specialists and yet they fail completely to understand the difference - time wasters

Rant Rant Rant.

Feel better now - but where is there a decent belt supplier who has the foggiest idea about the products they sell??

Cheers!

Is there a belt supplier in your local town/city? Yellow Pages might help.

There's certainly a place in Ipswich that sells all sorts of belts over the counter, and this town isn't noted for its industrial customers! I doubt they do mail order though...

I've always found these guys talk common-sense.
Whether they'll do mail order I don't know but worth asking.

My father in law works for BSL brammer. They've shorted me out a few times, take the belt down and they will measure it (various places) and supply you with one.

BSL are very good IMHO - they've sorted me out over the counter with hard to find bearings several times now. If they do timing belts too then I'd pay them a visit with yours and ask them for help.

Failing that my Dad runs a garden machinery business and can probably provide the correct part. U2U me if you need more help.

BSL Brammer are a great company, even supplied me with the correct hub bearings for my 1982 single seater. For belts I always use my local Fenner agent, they have belts by the mile..
