Measuring a Pulley Belt Size
Knowing how to measure a pulley belt size correctly is essential when purchasing a replacement one. Using the following steps will help ensure that you get a belt of the right size that fits your needs.
Steps to Take
- Measure around the circumference of the outside of the pulley, where the belt runs. Make sure to go around the whole of the pulley, not just one side of it.
- Convert the measured length into the actual belt size you need. This size is usually given in inches.
- Note the belt type that you require - match the old belt if possible. The most common are A type (stretch skewed) and B type (stretchless).
- Note down the pitch of the pulley. 800 inches and 880 inches are common pitches found on most pulleys.
By following these steps, you should have all the information you need to buy the correct-sized pulley belt.
