Record Power BSD250 drive belt

[Mead Camans]

Hi all,

Longest of long shots here, but does anyone have any clue where I might find a replacement drive belt for my Record Power BDS250 belt & disc sander?

Failing that, does anyone have such a spare part gathering dust in a shed that I could part with some cash for?

I've of course contacted Record and they have said that a new one will be available at the end of July, which isn't ideal as I need it up and running ASAP.

Cheers,

George

And if they don't have it try simplybearings.

Easy if you have the old one to measure, if not a carefully used piece of string is good enough.

Hi George,

Where did you end up getting your new drive belt from in the end? Mine has also disintegrated, so I contacted Record Power who offer it for £27.38 including delivery, which feels expensive to me!!

Unfortunately the link above to drivebelt solutions only has the BDS150 belt, and not the BDS250

Can anyone please tell me the size of the BDS250 belt. I have a friend with a disintegrated belt, he also thinks the RP price is a bit steep.

Mine's disintegrated too, so I couldn't tell you the size sorry! I've still not sorted out a replacement for mine yet, but luckily not a big deal at the moment.

Thanks Okeydokey... however this belt is for the smaller machine so no idea if it's the correct size for the BDS250?

Drivebelts direct on the web. I get mine delivered next day. About a tenner all in. And you can order by model name so you don’t need to measure, find the instructions or anything.

 

[WelshDave]

Don’t order the belt for the 150-it doesn’t fit! As I know to my cost

 

[Myfordman]

Virtually all belts are standard products. Machine makers will buy them in. Start with the type of belt and it’s section or tooth pattern etc and then buy according to length. Write the belt reference number inside the belt cover for future reference. Never buy as a manufacturers spare part as the price will be extortionate.

The OP is after BDS250 belts

 

[Sawdust=manglitter]

Does anyone else own a Record BDS250 who would be generous enough to check the size or labelling on the (intact) drive belt please? It would be greatly appreciated!

I don't understand the problem here. Will the people at Record Power or one of their distributors simply not tell you what size belt you need?
If not, as mentioned above simply measure with a piece of string and order the size you need. I don't expect that a small belt will cost much more than a few quid. As long as you don't buy one in RP packaging that is.
