If you don't buy a woods make sure it's a top of the line belt a not a elcheapo

A&I sells one made with Kevlar for about half but is it any good? Priced one nearby Woods dealer at $111 plus freight.

GOODYEAR and GATES make good belts.... Don't know who makes them for WOODS.. but I doubt they make their own.

Like them all, but love the "B"s.

I've bought belts from JDV- belts. They have lasted as long as the woods belts ever did. Just look up the woods part number and they have a belt to fit it. I've tried a generic belt from the farm store and it couldn't handle all the twists. The belting back just came off. I don't rember what I got from JDV but I think it was a gates belt. It dosent matter what belt you put on it must be very tight and aglined properly or won't stay in the pulley correctly. The upper twist pulley needs to be as low in the slot as you can get it. If it doesn't hold the twist you'll ruin a belt in no time. When you get it right a belt lasts a couple years.

It's hard to beat a Gates belt. We use them on fans in the chicken houses and if we use anything else it'll be replaced before to long. The Gates usual dry rot before they wear out for us

I too am running a Gates belt on mine after ruining the Woods belt earlier this year. Seems to be holding up fine, was about $60 at Napa. Woods belt is almost three times that!
