Al Ko Kober HDM 850

[Chessel]

Can anyone help me? The belt on this lathe has just failed and manufacturer’s spares don’t seem to available anymore.
What generic belt is suitable? The failed belt is 450mm outside diameter 8mm wide, 8mm deep

That’s an unusual belt, one that I’ve not come across before. A standard SPZ belt is 10mm wide and 8mm deep, which is what it might be, Belts after prolonged use stretch and get thinner, so it could be 10x8 rather than 8x8. Usually on the belt somewhere will be what it is, I.e. SPZxxx it’s also an unusually short length. Again I’m not aware of a standard belt that is that length. If it’s 450 internal length it could be a SPZ 487

If you take the belt to a good Automotive Factors, they will probably be able to help you.
