Where to get tape player drive belts?

[VA50]

I need some belts for a tape player I'm repairing. What are some good places to order some and what is the correct way to measure them? Thanks

WES components in Ashfield, NSW.

Here's the page for belts.

If you want to get info on belts, try www.turntableneedles.com and select the "tape player belt search"

http://www.turntableneedles.com/8-TRACK--TAPE-DECK--REEL-TO-REEL_c_1771.html

They have a selection function that will give the details of belts for most decks, and you can then choose the closest belt from WES

Cheers

If the belt is a critical one it needs to be the right thickness width etc. Mars communications in the states sell good quality belts to suit

most brands. Essential if you are repairing a Nakamichi.

Thanks for the replies. This sounds stupid but a number of times I've been directed to wes and i can't for the life of me work out how to order from them :/
