Machine Belt Sizes

The chart below shows the belts that fit most machines. Pleases note that many of the older drum sanders had several different sizes of pulleys, so the correct belt size for your machine may be different from the ones listed. We recommend measuring your old belt and comparing it to the Belt Size Chart.

For belt dimensions, see the Belt Size Chart

A, AX, B & BX Series Belts

The only difference between B and BX belts is the BX is cogged to make it more flexible.

Poly V Type Belts

Poly V belts are measured by the diameter and the number of ribs. The number of ribs is the number after the letter J.
For example, a PV390J8 has 8 ribs. The size dimension is the same for all widths.

Bona Edger Belts

Bona edgers (excluding the Advantedge) use a T5 series cog belt. These belts come in 4 different lengths, depending on the edger model and nose length. Because the edger models look so similar it is difficult to determine what belt is needed. We recommend measuring the belt length or counting the number of teeth. If your belt is still in good condition you may be able to read the numbers - the belt size will begin with T5-, followed by the length in millimeters. For example, the JBE10 belt will be T5-545.

Part # Length (mm) Length (Inches) Number of teeth
JBM10 455mm 17-7/8" 91
JBE10 545mm 21-7/16" 109
JBV10 690mm 27-3/16" 138
JBV11 900mm 35-7/16" 180

Measuring Belts

If you have an older machine, you may need to measure the belt to match it up. If you do not have a belt, or your belt is broken, you will need to measure around the pulleys.

Measuring your old belt

Most belts are measured by the outer diameter, or outer circle. This is the length around the outside of the belt. If you have a flexible tape measure (typically used for measuring fabric, these can be found in sewing stores) you can wrap it around the outside of the belt. This will give you the outer diameter of the belt, which can be compared to the charts above.
Another method is to place a mark on the belt and a mark on a board. Line up these marks, then roll the outside of the belt along the board until the belt mark cones around and contacts the board. Place a second mark on the board that lines up with the belt mark. Now measure the distance between the 2 marks on the board. This will give you the outer diameter.

Measuring without a belt

If you do not have a belt to measure, you will need to measure around the belt pulleys. Always measure around the outside of the pulley, not the groove where the belt rides. For V belts, this will be the correct diameter. For Poly V and cog belts, this will be the inside diameter, which is about 1/2" shorter than the outside diameter. You will need to add about 1/2" to the measured dimension.
The measurement can be done either with a flexible tape measure, or with a string. When using a string, wrap the string around the pulleys and place a mark where it meets. Lay the string out straight and measure it.
