Hi, guys, I gave that Belt Info last Thursday to Alain , he had been looking for a belts for
some of his Saws, There are many other Suppliers of this same Belt it was made for a
BridgePort Milling Machine, what Alain did not say is that this belt is made only in one
size ,what you have to do is Trim the belt down to fit your Saws. The belt is of 1-1/8
inches wide, because that was the size of belt for the Milling Machine. OK
Now for the other Homelite Saws that have 56 teeth ,the Belt that I Supplied last year
to Jame 5-30 for his saws is a off the shelf Metric Pitch ,the size is for 1 inch by 56 t.
Metric 25T10/560mm. = 1 " x 56 Teeth Long , this is a Standard Belt size 10 mm pitch.
Now for you Collectors that collect Clinton saws that have a 57 Tooth drive belt ,
that is a Non Standard Belt, .Standard belts that like one above ,are only made in this
Pitch of 10 mm. ,are 53,55,56, and 60 teeth,. But after contacting 4 Belting Companies
I Found one Company that can make ,what is Called a Welded Belt ,in ether 3/4" or 1 "
Wide ,but 57 teeth long, ,That belt would Be a 20T10/570 mm long or 25T10/570 mm
long. Now when I spoke by Phone to this Companies coustomer rep. she said that all
welded Belts are only about 50% to 60% sa Strong as standard Belts, But I said that
most of your Saws are Show pieces and or only use ligthly OK ????? Company Name is
the F.N.shappard Belt Co at 1800-733-5773 ,ask for Customer Service. Claude-Mack2
